Forecasters say snow likely to fall Saturday
After finding job, woman honors church members

When the economy turned sour, Marsha Beaver found herself unemployed. She prayed to God for direction and found herself at Shiloh Reformed Church of Faith. God opened the door for another opportunity for employment, she said, and she decided to honor her co-workers at the church with a Christmas Happiness donation in their names. Beaver made a $50 contribution in honor of her coworkers and two other donations. She makes a donation every year. “For years I worked in a very stressful environment. This is such a great environment. We all love the Lord, but we can laugh and support each other,” she said. Beaver said working in a God-loving, spiritual environment has blessed her greatly. “They’re my friends, my brothers and sisters in Christ. It’s been the best year of my life,” Beaver said. She said she’s been very fortunate in her life and wants to give to others. “I never had to experience growing up without parents. We weren’t wealthy, but we had everything we needed,” she said. Beaver said she can never recall a Christmas or birthday where she went without gifts and knowing she was loved. “I have a very tender spot for children in our area and the people that are less fortunate,” she said. Beaver said she’s not the wealthiest person in Rowan County, but she certainly feels like it. “I have someone who loves me, wonderful friends and coworkers and my health, my children and grandchildren. I’m just so blessed and so many people just don’t have that,” she said. Beaver said she really likes contributing to local charities. “You don’t have to look any further than your next door neighbor sometimes. I’m very blessed to help someone have a better day,” she said. Beaver is a Rowan native. Contributions can be brought to the Salisbury Post, 131 W. Innes St., between 8 a.m.-5 p.m. weekdays or mailed to The Salisbury Post Christmas Happiness Fund, P.O. Box 4639 Salisbury, NC 28145-4639.

David Zalinsky checks a readout of his blood pressure, which he e-mails to nurses at a dialysis center.
More than threads hold Zalinsky’s life together IBERTY — About midmorning today, David Zalinsky will be in surgery, giving up his last kidney. The operation — hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery — will take about two hours. The doctor literally will reach into his body through a small slit and remove the kidney, as he did two years ago with the first one. A week ago, I ran into Zalinsky’s 17-year-old daughter, Brittany, at Abundant Living Adult Day Services in Salisbury. A member of East Rowan High Junior Civitans, Brittany was hanging out with Ruth Hall, who goes to the day care center three times a week. Beaming, Hall was wearing a blue, hooded sweater — hand-knit by Brittany’s father and given to Ruth as a Christmas gift. “Oh, I love it,” she said. I learned later that David ZaMARK linsky knitted the sweater during WINEKA his mornings at home on dialysis. He had made a shawl for Ruth a year earlier. After today’s operation, Zalinsky hopes to be back home by Sunday, where he’ll again be tethered by various tubes to the dialysis machine beside his living room recliner. Zalinsky’s holidays will be a bit different than ours. When Christmas Day comes, he still will be in Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte. He has encouraged wife Kelly and their two girls, Brittany and 10-year-old Erin, to stay home and celebrate Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with the rest of the family. Zalinsky doesn’t want his wife bucking Charlotte traffic and, besides, Erin must prepare for Santa’s arrival. He plans to visit with everyone Christmas Day

There’s a good chance that 2010 could bring the first true white Christmas in many local residents’ lifetimes. Wednesday, meteorologists predicted a 60 percent chance of snow for Rowan and Cabarrus counties. If it happens, it will be the first white Christmas in the Charlotte region since 1947. The National Weather Service defines a white Christmas as at least one inch of snow on the ground on Christmas Day. Last year, four-plus inches of snow fell on Dec. 18. This year, the components that make a Carolina snowstorm — arctic air and moisture from the south — are lining up at just the right time. Forecaster Bob Bruce of the National Weather Service said snow is likely to start during the day on Saturday. “Our initial estimate is 3 to 4 inches,” Bruce said. But it’s too soon to tell just how the weather will unfold. Here’s what we do know: Temperatures Christmas Eve will drop below freezing. And during the day on Christmas Day, there will be cold air aloft, so whatever falls is likely to be snow, not sleet or freezing rain. Temperatures are expected to stay close to freezing on Christmas Day. And that’s enough to put locals on alert. When snow fell less than a week before Christmas last year, many people couldn’t find sleds to take advantage of the winter wonderland. Bernhardt Hardware on North Main

No check in the mail yet for those who overpaid state taxes RALEIGH (AP) — North Carolina’s tax collectors eliminated a backlog of years-old returns before a self-imposed Wednesday deadline, but they still want legislative help before sending out even more refunds to people who didn’t know they had overpaid. Revenue Secretary David Hoyle said workers completed the agency’s review of about 150,000 unToday’s forecast 45º/23º Sunny
resolved returns by Dec. 11 — 11 days before a target date set by predecessor Kenneth Lay in August. The department sent 10,500 individual income refunds worth $38 million while eliminating the backlog, department spokeswoman Beth Stevenson said. The returns, some of which dated to the mid-1990s, contained 240,000 flagged items for review, many of which were attributed to simple tax-

payer mistakes on their returns, Hoyle said. But he said that’s no excuse for the agency, saying the issues with individual, corporate and sales tax filings had accumulated over the years and should have been handled sooner. “Things got pushed aside,” Hoyle said in an interview. “We’re glad it’s done. We’re not going to let this happen again.” But agency leaders believe 7,800

refunds to individual filers totaling $2.6 million shouldn’t be sent out until the Legislature provides a narrow exception to a state law. A three-year statute of limitations prevents the department from paying back those who overpaid, Stevenson said. Hoyle, a senator for 18 years before Perdue appointed him to his job, said a dozen workers now examine flagged returns to prevent backlogs.

FROM 1A placed on an active list for a transplant as early as January. But if the kidney reveals signs of cancer, he must wait two years before a transplant is even an option. In matter-of-fact terms, Zalinsky explains why. If he were given a new kidney and was not cancer-free, the anti-rejection medications given to organ donor recipients would make an existing cancer go crazy. “It will spread like wildfire,” Zalinsky says. Can he live two years longer on dialysis, with no kidneys? Zalinsky says there are no absolute answers. Some people have done it for 20 years, he has been told. “I’m blessed that I can do it (dialysis) at home,” he says. About 15 years ago, Zalinsky was experiencing some back pain. After doctors ran tests, they told Zalinsky he had kidney disease and said his kidneys could fail in two to five years. Somehow he beat the odds until September 2008, when a spot appeared on one of his kidneys. A biopsy said it was cancer, and the kidney was removed Dec. 3, 2008. He was put on the transplant list with an inactive status for two years because of the cancer. In late April 2009, he started a monthlong training process designed to allow him to do his dialysis at

Book returned 76 years late; no fine MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich. (AP) — Mark McKee is lucky a Michigan library isn’t charging him a late fee for returning a book 76 years late. In 1934, the 13-year-old McKee checked out “A Dog of Flanders” by English author Marie Louise de la Ramee from the Mount Clemens Pub-
lic Library. Recently, McKee, now 89, said he discovered the book and mailed it to the library. “I was entranced by the book and kept it with my prized possessions, intending to return it forthwith,” McKee wrote in a letter. “Thus began a 76-year odyssey of missed opportunity.”

CHRISTMAS FROM 1A Street is ready for whatever Mother Nature has in store. Just about every sled in the shop was out on the sale floor before 11 a.m. Wednesday: plastic disc coasters, big plastic sleds in tie-dye colors and more. “We couldn’t get in enough sleds,” Paul Bernhardt said. The most popular seller is a medium-sized sled made out of durable foam, similar to that used for pool floats. Bernhardt also has Flexible Flyers — the classic wooden sleds with red steel runners — in two sizes. “People have been buying them all year,” Bernhardt said. Christmas shoppers are rushing to get their errands done before Friday, just in case it turns nasty out. Brian Jones of China Grove was looking for gifts in Salisbury with children Madilyn, Andrew and Aaron. All three said they were looking forward to the season’s first big snow. First order of business: Build a snowman. And toss snowballs, if possible. Jones said he’d bought the kids a sled last year. “They’re excited” about the chance to break it out again, he said. Sherry Lowery said she’d like to see a little bit of snow. “Just enough to cover the grass,” she said. “That’d be good.” Lowery was born and raised in El Paso, and a white Christmas just doesn’t happen in Texas. She’s looking forward to the chance to see one here. On the other hand, a white Christmas is nostalgic to Susan Perry-Graham of Cornelius. She was in town Wednesday visiting her sister-inlaw.
When she was growing up in St. Louis, there was snow on Christmas “practically every year.” “I’d like to see it for the kids, mostly. It makes it extra special,” she said. While most people look forward to having Christmas Day off, some have to be ready for cold-weather emergencies. Mike Beaver of heating and air conditioning company Beaver Brothers said his staff will be ready to respond if furnaces fail on Christmas. “As the weather gets more extreme, the equipment has to work harder,” Beaver said. He said that his repair personnel would have to be careful if the roads turn treacherous. Lynne Harrell, owner of The Sweetest Thing on East Innes Street, had a more specific weather wish as she finished her catering orders: “I want it to snow on Christmas and be gone by Monday!” she said. But it will be another day before we know how snowy Christmas Day might be. Bruce said that computer models still showed some variations in the storm track. “If it goes further south, we won’t get as much. If it comes right over us, obviously, we could get a little more,” Bruce said. He said that the various computer models are run twice a day. Right now, they show a snowstorm developing. But things could still change. For instance, after the first snowfall, the low pressure system could then move up the coast. If that happens, Bruce the storm might wrap around and drop more snow on North Carolina. “It could speed up, it could slow down more,” Bruce said. “We’ll just have to wait and see,” Bruce said.

gifts. If Zalinsky has another passion, it’s music, particularly the trumpet. “I can play about any brass instrument and a couple of the woodwinds,” he says. Zalinsky grew up in Miami before heading north and attending Catawba College for three years as a music major. He then worked 17 years with the N.C. Department of Corrections, mostly at the high-rise prison off U.S. 29 in Salisbury. After he
crushed his ankle in a training accident, he couldn’t maintain his state certification, so his most recent job, before his kidneys began shutting down, was at the Food Lion corporate offices. Zalinsky still does all the cooking around the house, while Kelly works full-time at the N.C. Lutheran Synod office in Salisbury. They’ve been married 23 years, and Zalinsky thinks he’s lucky that the girls have Kelly’s smarts. I left Zalinsky Tuesday 20 minutes before his dialysis treatment was finished. When I arrived that morning, he had shouted for me to come inside. “I’d get up, but I’m tied down,” he said. Without his second kidney, Zalinsky’s daily dialysis treatments will be even longer, at least four hours each session. Zalinsky has some tough days ahead. Think of him, and count your blessings.

Drive with caution if winter weather arrives Severe weather can be both frightening and dangerous for automobile travel. Motorists should know the safety rules for dealing with winter road emergencies. AAA reminds moRoads will be busy, traveling torists to be more expensive c a u t i o u s while driving this year, 5A in adverse weather. AAA recommends the following winter driving tips: • Avoid driving while you’re tired. Getting the proper amount of rest before taking on winter weather tasks reduces driving risks. • Never warm up a vehicle in an enclosed area, such as a garage. • Make certain your tires are properly inflated. • Never mix radial tires with other tire types. • Keep your gas tank at least half full to avoid gas line freeze-up. • If possible, avoid using your parking brake in cold, rainy and snowy weather. • Do not use cruise control when driving on any slippery surface (wet, ice, sand). • Always look and steer where you want to go. • Use your seat belt every time you get into your vehicle. Tips for long-distance winter trips: • Watch weather reports prior to a long-distance drive or before driving in isolated areas. Delay trips when especially bad weather is expected. If you must leave, let others know your route, destination and estimated time of arrival. • Always make sure your vehicle is in peak operating condition by having it inspected before the trip. • Pack a cell phone with emergency numbers, plus blankets, gloves, hats, food, water and any needed medication in your vehicle. • If you become snowbound, stay with your vehicle. It provides temporary shelter and makes it easier for rescuers to locate you. Don’t try to walk in a severe storm. It’s easy to lose sight of your vehicle in blowing snow and become lost. • Don’t over exert yourself if you try to push or dig your vehicle out of the snow. • Tie a brightly colored cloth to the antenna or place a cloth at the top of a rolled up window to signal distress. At night, keep the dome light on if possible. It only uses a small amount of electricity and will make it easier for rescuers to

ROADS FROM 1a Wednesday it is conservatively predicting 3-5 inches of accumulation through Saturday night, but that more is possible. Computer models in recent days “point to an event of historic proportions over the Piedmont of the Carolinas for Christmas Day,” the service said on its website. A storm moving up the East Coast could produce the first significant Dec. 25 snowfall since 1947, when 5.8 inches fell on the region. While the prospect of a deep, white Christmas may excite children and purveyors of bread and milk, it means work for the people whose job is to keep the roads clear. With that in mind, city Street Division workers spent Wednesday changing over from leaf collection to snowremoval mode, Weatherford said. That meant readying snow plows, salt and sand spreaders, motor graders and front-end loaders. It also meant reminding department employees their holiday weekend could be a short one. “Guys are on standby for whatever the event may be for Saturday,” Weatherford said. The city’s response will depend on the snowfall and whether roads are covered, he said.

find you. • Make sure the exhaust pipe isn’t clogged with snow, ice or mud. A blocked exhaust could cause deadly carbon monoxide gas to leak into the passenger compartment with the engine running. • Use whatever is available to insulate your body from the cold. This could include floor mats, newspapers or paper maps. • If possible, run the engine and heater just long enough to remove the chill and to conserve gasoline. Tips for driving in the snow: • Accelerate and decelerate slowly. Applying the gas slowly to accelerate is the best method for regaining traction and avoiding skids. Don’t try to get moving in a hurry. And take time to slow down for a stoplight. • Drive slowly. Everything takes longer on snow-covered roads. Accelerating, stopping, turning — nothing happens as quickly as on dry pavement. Give yourself time to maneuver by driving slowly. • The normal dry pavement following distance of 3 to 4 seconds should be increased to 8 to 10 seconds. This increased margin of safety will provide the longer distance needed if you have to stop. • Know your brakes. Whether you have antilock brakes or not, the best way to stop is threshold breaking. Keep the heel of your foot on the floor and use the ball of your foot to apply firm, steady pressure on the brake pedal. • Don’t stop if you can avoid it. There’s a big difference in the amount of inertia it takes to start moving from a full stop versus how much it takes to get moving while still rolling. If you can slow down enough to keep rolling until a traffic light changes, do it. • Don’t power up hills. Applying extra gas on snow-covered roads just starts your wheels spinning. Try to get a little inertia going before you reach the hill and let that inertia carry you to the top. As you reach the crest of the hill, reduce your speed and proceed down hill as slowly as possible. • Don’t stop going up a hill. There’s nothing worse than trying to get moving up a hill on an icy road. Get some inertia going on a flat roadway before you take on the hill. • Stay home. If you really don’t have to go out, don’t. Even if you can drive well in the snow, not everyone else can. Don’t tempt fate: If you don’t have somewhere you have to be, watch the snow from indoors. terstate 85 and other primary roads at 5 a.m. Transportation Department employees are scheduled to be off Friday and Monday but know they could be called to work on Christmas. When depends on what time the snow starts — the Weather Service says sometime after 2 a.m. Saturday — and how fast it piles up. “It’s just another day at the DOT, unfortunately,” Thomason said. For Weatherford, it’s kind of a full circle. The day he took over as head of the Street Division, he drove his predecessor, Bruce Everhart, home — in the snow. It snowed 6 or 8 inches that day, he recalls. “So I started on the first day of this position in the snow. ... Here in the last several weeks, I’ve had several snow events or threats I’ve had to deal with,” he said. “And now this one here sounds like a possible event.” So even though Weatherford won’t be on standby this weekend for the first time in more than 30 winters, the Street Division will benefit from the lessons he’s learned, lessons such as “It’s a whole lot easier to gear up ... then to come in the middle of the night and put the plows on.” That preparation might buy his now former employees a little more time with their families. And that means if the forecasts are right, Weatherford can join other Rowan residents Saturday and enjoy the first white Christmas of his retirement. “Everything’s good to go and these guys know what they need to do,” he said. “So I feel very comfortable.” Contact Scott Jenkins at 704-797-4248.

Storm lashes Southern California LAGUNA BEACH, Calif. (AP) — The tail end of a storm that dumped rain on Southern California for nearly a week gave the region one final lashing, burying houses and cars in mud, washing hillsides onto highways, flooding streets and dumping filthy water into the ocean at popular beaches. Inflatable boats and canoes were used to rescue dozens of motorists and homeowners from flooded streets, hotels and hillsides. Others refused to leave their homes, even as dirty water and mud moved into their neighborhoods. Floods washed away at least six vacant homes in Arizona and inundated parts of Nevada and Utah. The storm turned the final days before Christmas into a nightmare. Officials on Tuesday ordered the evacuation of 232 homes in La Canada Flintridge and La Crescenta, suburbs of Los Angeles below steep hillsides that burned in 2009 and where mudslides inundated homes and backyards in February.

$4.2 billion package for 9/11 victims, responders passes WASHINGTON (AP) — Congress passed a $4.2 billion aid package for survivors of the September 2001 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center and responders who develop illnesses because of breathing dust from the ruins. The House passed the bill on a 206-60 vote Wednesday about two hours after the Senate cleared it. President Barack Obama has said he is eager to sign it. The package provides money to monitor rescue and cleanup workers and treat illnesses related to Ground Zero. It also reopens a victims’ compensation fund for another five years to cover wage and other economic losses of sickened workers and nearby residents. New York members of Congress had sought $2 billion more. They accepted the smaller amount in exchange for GOP critics dropping their opposition.
Obama signs bill to let gays serve openly in military
Celebrating a ‘season of progress’ arms control OK’d WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama celebrated a bipartisan “season of progress” on Wednesday at a year-end news conference marking an up-and-down second year in office that blended a thrashing at the polls, slow progress on the economy and late victories in Congress. He forecast struggles over spending in 2011 with Republicans who take control the House, and vowed to try again and pass sweeping immigration legislation that was blocked by GOP critics. “If I believe in something strongly I stay on it,” he said. Obama opened the news conference with a reference to the nuclear arms control treaty with Russia that the Senate ratified earlier in the day on a bipartisan vote. In addition to cutting nuclear weapons and launchers, he said the pact will allow U.S. inspectors to “be back on the ground” in Russia. “So we’ll be able to trust but verify,” he added, quoting the late President Ronald Reagan in another of a
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama signed a new law that will allow gays for the first time in history to serve openly in America’s military. And he urged those kicked out under the old law to re-enlist. Framing the issue as a matter of civil rights long denied, Obama said that “we are a nation that welcomes the service of every patriot ... a nation that believes that all men and women are created equal.” Repealing the 17-year-old policy known as “don’t ask, don’t tell” in a ceremony that was alternately emotional and rousing, the president said “this law I’m about to sign will strengthen our national security and uphold the ideals that our fighting men and women risk their lives to defend.” The new law ends a policy that forced gays to hide their sexual orientation or face dismissal. More than 13,500 people were discharged under the rule since 1993. “I hope those ... who’ve been discharged under this discriminatory pol-

Even an appearance by Santa Claus has been nixed after Iraq’s Christian leaders called off Christmas celebrations amid new al-Qaida threats on the a community still terrified from a siege on a Baghdad church. Christians across Iraq have been living in fear since the assault on Our Lady of Salvation Church as its Catholic congregation was celebrating Sunday Mass. Sixty-eight people were killed. Days later Islamic insurgents bombed Christian homes and neighborhoods in the capital. On Tuesday, al-Qaida insurgents threatened more attacks on Iraq’s beleaguered Christians, many of whom have fled their homes or the country since the church attack. A council representing Christian denominations across Iraq advised its followers to cancel public celebrations of Christmas.
Police search for man after body found in suitcase NEW YORK (AP) — Police are searching for a man recorded in a surveillance video on a New York City street wheeling a suitcase that later was found stuffed with a strangled woman’s body. The video shows the man rolling the luggage in East Harlem late Tuesday before pausing outside a building. The man looks around and then walks out of the camera’s view, taking the suitcase with him. A passer-by found the suitcase and the body soon after outside a nearby building about a block from Rao’s, a wellregarded Italian restaurant founded in 1896. Police say the unidentified woman in the suitcase was black and was in her 20s or 30s. They say she appeared to have a head injury. The medical examiner’s office says the cause of the woman’s death was neck compression. The death has been ruled a homicide.

In addition to the countless bags of clothes, shoes, learning toys and electronic games, more than 30 bikes were collected by Duke Energy and The Shaw Group to support this year’s Angel Tree program.
Duke, Shaw employees work together for Angel Tree Each day, employees from The Shaw Group and Duke Energy work together to build a new 620megawatt gas-fired combined-cycle generating plant at the Buck Steam Station in Rowan County. But during the holiday season, these employees also join together to grant local children’s holiday wishes. Through the Salvation Army Angel Tree program, the team adopted 100 children from the community and helped make Christmas a little better for those in the community. With more than 30 bicycles, numerous bags of clothes and shoes, the latest electronic gaming systems, learning toys and more collected, Shaw and Duke employees spread holiday cheer. “Shaw likes to make a positive difference in the communities wherever they are working, and their efforts here will definitely make a difference in the lives of these 100 angels this Christmas,” said Todd Shuping, Duke Energy project manager for the Buck expansion. “All those bicycles and toys were a wonderful sight.”
Three beaten in China Grove BY SHAVONNE POTTS spotts@salisburypost.com
Three people were jumped outside a China Grove home when one of the victims went to retrieve a borrowed video game console early Wednesday morning. Dustin Parson, 23, went to the home of friend Robert Eddings, 125 Baucom Acres, to get back his borrowed Playstation 3 and left when Eddings told him the console was not there. “He said it wasn’t there, but at another friend’s house down the street,” said Sheriff’s Capt. John Sifford. As Parson, who went to Eddings’ home accompanied by two other friends, Justina Phoenix, 18, and Dennis Lowery Jr., 25, was leaving, the three were “jumped” outside the home. The three friends were robbed and beaten by four males and two females not known to them. The attackers took a purse, a total of $215 in cash, makeup, a cell phone and Nike tennis shoes valued at $90. No arrests have been made. The Rowan County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate.

Salisbury police officer Rebecca Sexton and Sgt. Tom Wilsey unload bicycles Wednesday during the eighth annual Gerry Wood Auto Center-Salisbury police Department bike giveaway. more than 100 needy children received new wheels Wednesday. BY SARAH CAMPBELL scampbell@salisburypost.com
When David, Jazlyn, Jaylen and Mariah Lattimore went to bed Tuesday night, they had no idea they would wake up as the owners of new bicycles. As Salisbury Police Sgt. Tom Wilsey and Officer Rebecca Sexton arrived at their Arlington Street home, the children peered out the front door before running out to watch their new rides being unloaded. Yolanda Lattimore said it was a blessing for her children to receive the bikes. “They’ve been begging for bikes for years now,” she said. Yolanda helped 7-year-old Jazlyn climb onto her bike for a quick spin as her brothers took off down the sidewalk. “She just learned how to ride,” Yolanda said. “She has cerebral palsy and they’ve been trying to get her to use her legs more so I thought a bike would be a good way to do that.” Yolanda’s kids weren’t the only ones sporting new wheels Wednesday. The Salisbury Police Department delivered 115 bikes, which were purchased by Gerry Wood Auto Group, to children throughout Salisbury. About 30 volunteers, nearly 20 of which were Salisbury police officers, turned up at Gerry Wood before 8 a.m. Wednesday to load the bright-colored bicycles into trucks and trailers. Salisbury Police Officer Wiley Lamm, who has organized the event since its inception, said there was a great turnout this year. Lamm coordinates where the bikes will be dropped off, making sure the size and style were appropriate for each child. He said the police department received more than 400 applications for bicycles this year and recipients were selected based on need. This is the eighth year the Salisbury Police Department and Gerry Wood have teamed up to distribute bikes and helmets to underprivileged children. The idea for the annual bike giveaway spawned from a meeting between Brenda Wood, her husband, Gerry, and for-

to deliver the bikes Wednesday. “I want my girls to see that they are blessed and that there are some children who might not get anything at all for Christmas if we didn’t deliver these bikes,” she said. “I want them to see and experience it so they’ll be more giving.” Wilsey said with children of his own he doesn’t have much extra time to reach out to the community, so he looks forward to the bike giveaway each year. “It’s a special day for me,” he said. “I enjoy putting a smile on kids’ faces.” Tanesha Clodfelter was happy to see the bikes arrive
Wednesday. She said her children Jamir, 11, Jalin, 7, and Jhari, 5, won’t be complaining about being bored anymore. “This is great,” she said. “Instead of being inside playing games and things they’ll actually get to be outside.” Brenda Wood said she gets customers involved in the giveaway by allowing them to fill out a gift tag that is placed on each bike.

AROUND 51 weeks of Christian flag for King KING (AP) — The Christian flag will fly at a public war memorial in King for all but one week in 2011. The Winston-Salem Journal reports that a lottery held Wednesday by town leaders chose 52 residents who sought to recognize individual veterans by flying flags at the site. One of the winners opted to have no flag flying. The town adopted the lottery system after removing the Christian flag from the memorial. A veteran had complained, along with civil liberties groups. Any of 41 religious symbols approved by the Veterans Administration can fly at the memorial, but all of the applicants opted for either the Christian flag or no flag. The first flag will go up Jan. 3, in honor of a Persian Gulf War veteran.
Perdue wants lawmakers to boost incentives RALEIGH (AP) — Gov. Beverly Perdue says she needs sweeter incentives at her disposal so she compete financially with surrounding states in the game to lure expanding companies to North Carolina. Perdue told reporters Wednesday at the Executive Mansion she intends to talk with General Assembly members early next year about boosting her ability to attract firms that will create jobs in the state. Expanding incentives may be difficult in a Republican-controlled Legislature next year. Many GOP lawmakers say the best incentives come from lowering the top corporate and individual income tax rates and reducing regulation. Perdue also said she was willing to examine expanding state-run gambling and privatizing the state liquor system. The changes could bring extra revenues to narrow a potential $3.7 billion budget gap next year.

Agents seize moonshine, bust whiskey still RALEIGH (AP) — State alcohol control agents raided locations in three counties, seizing hundreds of gallons of what they say is illegally made moonshine. The state Department of Crime Control and Public Safety said Wednesday that since last week the raids have resulted in seizures of cash, personal property and multiple arrests. State Alcohol Law Enforcement agents and Johnston County sheriff’s deputies seized 255 gallons of the homemade liquor in Benson, and destroyed nearly 4,000 gallons of mash used to make the bootleg whisky. Agents also found 294 gallons of liquor in Warrenton and six gallons of moonshine in Hollister. Four people face a variety of charges stemming from the operation.

Perdue’s office says the $36 million project will contain equipment for research and development and to manufacture vaccines. The average salary for the new jobs will be $106,000. The state awarded the company a $1 million grant from the One North Carolina Fund. The company also could receive up to another $2.7 million in cash grants.

The 60-year-old Thomas is expected to be released next Dec. 7. Edmond Ross with the Federal Bureau of Prisons says Thomas is being held at a minimum security camp next to the high security prison. He pleaded guilty in May to skimming cash requested by his office for drug investigations. Prosecutors say he sometimes took half of the money for his personal use.

The federal Mail and Telephone Order Merchandise Rule requires sellers to ship your order within the time they told you or within 30 days if they didn’t give you a date. Under the rule, companies that fail to deliver on time must let you choose between agreeing to a later delivery date or canceling your order for a full refund. “Keep this rule in mind if your holiday orders don’t arrive on time, or whenever you

AAA: Holiday travel prices, traffic are up AAA Carolinas
Higher gas prices and the most congestion on the highways in the last 10 years are this year’s Christmas Grinch for North Carolina motorists. Gas prices are up 39 cents statewide since last year and have reached $3 per gallon in Asheville. Highway travel is expected to increase 3 percent compared 2011, according to AAA Carolinas. A record 93 percent of those traveling in the state are expected to drive to their destination. This represents the busiest Christmas travel holiday for North Carolina roads on record. More than 2.5 million North Carolinians are expected to drive 50 miles or more between Dec. 23 and Jan. 2, 2011. “We have seen a pent-up travel demand increasing for cruises, tours and hotels all year,” said David E. Parsons, president and CEO of AAA Carolinas. Travel predictions may be affected by severe winter weather, Parsons noted, with AAA Carolinas experiencing record calls for emergency road service this month due to cold temperatures and bad weather. The average gallon of regular unleaded gasoline in North Carolina is 39 cents higher than last year with the state’s most expensive average gas price in Asheville at $3, and the least expensive average gas price in Winston-Salem at $2.898. Gas prices in the state average 14 cents higher than during the Thanksgiving holiday. Escalating airfares, smaller planes, fewer seats and a proliferation of extra fees and negative publicity over security screening have pushed some holiday air travelers to seek other forms of transportation.

ly 60 percent from its peak in 2003, according to surveys and travel analysis commissioned by AAA. Carolina travelers are expected to log an average of 1,050 miles roundtrip during the holiday and spend an average of $694 per household for items such as fuel, accommodations, shopping, entertainment and other transportation costs. This is slightly higher than the average expenditure last year of $670. North Carolina highways were the scene of more than 50 fatalities during the 2007 and 2008 winter holiday seasons. An average of almost 300 traffic injuries a day were reported during the holidays. Drunk driving is always a major problem during this travel period, with holiday parties often held between Christmas and New Year’s. Remember to secure a designated driver or call a cab if you are going to consume alcohol. Most construction projects along interstates, N.C. and U.S. routes will be suspended until 9 a.m., Tuesday, Jan. 4, with four exceptions: • U.S. 17 Business in Jacksonville (Onslow County) is reduced to two-lane, two-way traffic on the Buddy Phillips Bridge over the New River for construction of a new bridge; • U.S. 17 in Windsor (Bertie County) is reduced to one lane on the Cashie River Bridge due to construction. Traffic is controlled by signals; however, commercial trucks are restricted on this route; • I-40 in Greensboro (Guilford County) is reduced to two lanes in both directions between Wendover Avenue (Exit 214) and Guilford College Road (Exit 213) for bridge construction; • I-73 in Greensboro is reduced to four lanes near Wendover Avenue (Exit 102) for bridge construction.

APPELLATE COURT CAMPAIGNS
Public funding proves its value orth Carolina’s first statewide use of instant runoff voting got off to a rocky start in this year’s 13-candidate N.C. Court of Appeals race, with some confusion at the polls and a lengthy recount process that delayed eventual winner Doug McCullough from claiming victory until seven weeks after the election. But another innovation in statewide judicial races — voluntary public campaign financing — has been a solid success. Launched eight years ago, the program provides public funding to candidates who agree to accept strict spending limits and obtain hundreds of small donations from voters. The money comes from a $50 assessment on attorneys on a voluntary $3 checkoff on state income tax forms. While the financing option may have been slow to catch on, it has now been embraced by a majority of appellate candidates, according to a new analysis by the group Democracy North Carolina. When the N.C. Supreme Court and Court of Appeals convene next year, 17 of the 22 members will be judges who have successfully qualified for public financing in 2010 and previous election cycles. It should come as no surprise that a majority of judicial candidates like public financing. It relieves them of the burden of groveling for campaign contributions, the majority of which have often come from attorneys, business political-action committees and other special interests that are often present in court. In the 2010 elections, according to Democracy South, public funds accounted for 73 percent of the $1.7 million raised by the eight candidates. That’s a complete reversal from the situation eight years ago, when special-interest donors supplied 73 percent of the campaign donations to appellate candidates. The shift to public financing hasn’t just reduced the dialing-for-dollars factor. It also has helped level the playing field for women and minority candidates. Next year, for the first time in state history, a majority of N.C. Supreme Court justices will be women — and all of them successfully qualified for public financing. In total, the state’s appellate courts now include 11 women and three African-Americans, all of whom qualified for public financing. Some of these well-qualified jurists might not be on the bench today if not for the availability of public funding. It will require more election cycles to determine whether instant runoffs are a viable alternative to traditional runoff balloting. But as for public financing of judicial races, the verdict is in. This is a successful program that has helped reduce special-interest influence in judicial races while making the state’s appellate justices more representative of the people they serve.

Common sense
(Or uncommon wisdom, as the case may be)
Silence is a great peacemaker. — Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Moderately confused
he Founding Fathers thought a census was so important they made it almost the first order of business — Article 1, Section 2 — in the new Constitution and decreed that after that first count an “actual Enumeration” be conducted every 10 years thereafter. The 2010 census, whose results were released Tuesday, was our 23rd. It is a snapshot of where our nation stood last April 1 when there were 308,745,538 U.S. residents, up from 281 million in 2000. The census shows a maturing country with a growth rate moderated by two recessions — one of them the worst since the Depression — over the decade. The growth for the decade just ending was 9.7 percent, compared to 13.2 percent from 1990 to 2000. The largest increases were in the South and West, foretelling a significant shift of political power and federal resources to those regions. Combined, they grew by 23 million people, while the older, established regions of the Northeast and Midwest grew by 4.2 million. The winners: Texas will gain four seats, bringing its delegation to 36, in the 435member U.S. House. Florida will gain two House members, bringing it to 27, the same size as New York. Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, South Carolina and Washington each will gain one. So will Utah. (North Carolina’s population grew 18.5 percent, to 9,535,483 residents, a healthy jump but not enough to add to its 13 House seats.) The losers: Ohio and New York will lose two House seats each. Louisiana is the only Southern state to lose a seat — because of Hurricane Katrina. Illinois, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey and Pennsylvania also will lose one each. California, with over 37 million people, still has the largest House delegation, at 53 seats, but for the first time the state did not gain a seat after the census. Texas gained the most people since the last census — its population rose by 4.2 million to over 25 million. The biggest gainer percentagewise was Nevada, up over 35 percent — an unruly growth rate it is now paying for with high unemployment and widespread foreclosures in its overbuilt, overstocked housing market. The immediate political calculus was that the population shifts to Republicancontrolled areas will help the GOP. What will help the Republicans even more is that the 2010 elections gave them control of the statehouses and legislatures that will do the redistricting. After redistricting, each House member will represent an average of 710,767 people. In 1790, it was 34,000. The Founders would have been astounded and, we like to think, pleased by their handiwork.

them and promised drugs. I don’t think they have a case here.
From pbradshaw: I agree with Terry (Osborne) that alcohol sales will be a bigger problem if they go private. Every store on every corner will attempt to sell it. Look at the problems beer and wine cause being sold by private citizens. Taking hard liquor and turning it over for everyone to sell will cause big issues. No control, theft, etc. ... From coolbeans: This would be a disaster. Leave it the way it is. I can’t understand why anyone would think this is a good idea. Are you listening, Bev? From slash: The best way to control alcohol is to make it illegal. ... We all know that alcohol is far more dangerious than a lot of other drugs that are illegal, so why not make it all illegal, including alcohol????? From lies, lies and more lies: The only issue is whether a store can safeguard the sales of liquor as well as they can the sale of beer, and the answer would have to be, of course they can. While they may not be perfect, it would be in their best interest (i.e. profit) to have these products neither stolen nor sold to minors. If they do sell to minors, take away their license for good, or a number of years. From village idiot: Give the whiskey-selling back to the moonshiners and stick to what government does best. Selling lottery tickets.
From morgan: Of all the ways to get busted ... It’s a sign, drugs don’t pay!
... Dr. James Davis is Principal of the Year From 671: Congratulations to a great principal and a very fine school. Every teacher and student deserves a principal like Mr. Davis. He will not say this but success begins in his office. Rowan County is fortunate to have him in our schools. From diabetes my @$$: It’s good to read about a school system employee who truly thrives doing what he loves doing. From haveaniceday55: Inspirational. Congratulations, Mr. Davis.
... More fights at Henderson From rowan31: This is absolutely ridiculous. This is a school for second-chance students, and if they don’t care and just want to fight, then I say throw (them) out of school forever. From smitty’s#1fan: These kids need four years of good ole UNCLE SAM. Sign them up and ship them out. From seesmuch: You people that have all the answers maybe you should volunteer some time at Henderson and see if you can make a difference. Sometimes children just need to know someone cares about them a little more. Not all the children are there because of behavior problems.
... Man calls wrong number, gets arrested From couldbe: Helpful hint ... If you are going to make drug deals over the phone, make sure you have the right number and know who you are talking to.

From northrpride: So they didn’t find any drugs, and the only evidence they have is someone saying he called

LETTERS Some more thoughts on the term ‘virgin birth’ Although this is a bit late (I’ve been out of town), I would like to respond to the article “Thoughts on the Virgin Birth” by William Ragsdale that appeared in the Dec. 11 Post. It was an excellent article and his comments concerning mystery as well as “virgin birth” as a metaphor for the birth of “new things” in our lives is certainly right on target. However, I would like to clarify one thing. The term “virginal conception” is a much more accurate term than “virgin birth.” There is nothing in the canonical text of the New Testament that would indicate Jesus’ birth was anything other than a normal birth. This in no way diminishes the mystery attached to the birth event. After all, a “virginal conception” is certainly unique. The idea of “virgin birth” is most likely rooted in the non-canonical text the Proto-Gospel of James. In this rather fanciful text, probably dating from the late second century, Mary and Joseph are about half way to Bethlehem when it be-

comes time for Mary to deliver. Joseph leaves to find a midwife to help with the delivery and, just as he returns, a bright light surrounds Mary. When the light recedes, the infant Jesus has appeared. Subsequent examination by a woman named Salome reveals that Mary remains a virgin, thus a “virgin birth.” Since the term “virginal conception” does not roll off the tongue as easily as “virgin birth” and since the term “virgin birth” has been a part of the language and tradition of the church from an early time, I’m not suggesting we change our
description of the event, only that we be aware of the actual canonical and noncanonical descriptions of the nativity. — Roger Hull China Grove
Hagan’s deficit worries Regarding Sen. Kay Hagan’s comments on the need to reduce the deficit (“Tax bill dodges tough decisions”): So Kay Hagan, newly cast as a fiscal conservative, is worried about the deficit? I hope no one will interrupt the gentlelady’s commendable innovation! I’m not buying it, neither her tortured ignorance of economic growth, nor her professed concern for the deficit. That “good conscience” of hers allowed her to rubber stamp the entire Obama-Pelosi package. I know what I can do in good conscience: Vote to send Kay Hagan back to Greensboro and private life in 2016. I can hardly wait. — Steve Owen Kannapolis

Charges unlikely for armed woman at WSOC-TV CHARLOTTE (AP) — Charges are unlikely for a North Carolina woman so upset about her financial situation she walked into a TV station and put what turned out to be an unloaded gun to her head, a police spokesman said Wendy Cosby Naidas, 51, of Conover was only a threat to herself, not anyone in WSOC-TV’s studios in Charlotte, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police spokesman Robert Fey said. She was undergoing a mental evaluation at a Charlotte hospital. “It’s up to the arresting officers whether charges will be filed, but I don’t believe they will be. She pointed the gun at herself, not anyone else,” Fey said. Police say Naidas walked into the lobby of the TV station during its Tuesday evening news broadcast. The station went off the air for about an hour and the building was evacuated and locked down. No one was hurt or taken hostage and police took Naidas into custody.
“It’s one of those things I’m thankful we had the security procedures in place,” said WSOC-TV general manager Joe Pomilla. “Fortunately, we came out of this unscathed and that’s the most important thing.” Pomilla said Naidas was not angry with the station and felt it was a place she could speak her mind. “She came here because she wanted attention,” Pomilla said, adding that the woman was talking about “financial issues. She was in an accident and said she needed help.” Records show she and her husband filed for bankruptcy in July 2000. At the time, they owed about $107,000, including $76,700 on their mortgage. She also was convicted of illegally collecting unemployment benefits in 1991. Her brother-in-law, Kenny Naidas, told the Charlotte Observer that he was surprised by the news. He said Naidas, the mother of three, is a very nice person. “Why she would do that? I
don’t know,” he said. Pomilla said Naidas approached the building around 5 p.m. The station, located just north of downtown Charlotte, has two sets of doors, one of which is always locked. People who cannot show they have official business with the station are denied access. When the woman became adamant about entering, a security guard was called over, and that’s when she put the gun to her head, according to Pomilla. Employees were notified by e-mail to evacuate the building. They went to an area behind the station. Pomilla said a SWAT team entered the station, approached the woman and told her to put the gun down. She complied. While security procedures worked, he said, officials will look at ways to make the station even safer. The ABC affiliate has approximately 200 workers. Its signal covers 22 counties in and around Charlotte.
Bling watch: Christmas snow means jewelry refunds ASHEVILLE (AP) — Alan Perry has $250,000 on the line if at least 3 inches of snow fall in Asheville on Christmas Day, but to hear him talk, a blizzard would suit him just fine. “Let it snow, baby! Let it snow!” Perry, a Wilmington jeweler, said Wednesday as his latest promotion brought him grins and shoppers buzzing with anticipation. Perry’s Emporium has an insurance policy that will refund the cost of all jewelry purchased in the Wilmington store between Nov. 26 and Dec. 11 if at least 3 inches of snow fall at Asheville Regional Airport on Christmas Day. The deal was first reported by the Asheville CitizenTimes. National Weather Service meteorologist Doug Outlaw says prospects are good that Perry’s promotion might pay off. “He might actually have to. It’s going to be quite an event,” Outlaw said. Outlaw says the current
forecast calls for as much as 5 inches of snow for Asheville, with up to 4 inches possible from the middle of Christmas Day through the afternoon. The combination of cold air pumped in by high pressure from the north and moisture from the Gulf of Mexico by low pressure makes snow almost a certainty, according to Outlaw. “This is looking like a perfect situation for snow,” he said. Promoting his store is nothing new to Perry. He’s also sponsored a deal in which buyers get their engagement rings free if it rained on their wedding day. The latest idea was spawned as Perry returned from a meeting in the Midwest with other jewelers, among them the operator of a Chicago store that offered free “bling” if 6 inches of snow fell on the city during a similar time frame. “I was flying home and I was praying and meditating,” he said, noting that he was
also bemoaning the fact that people are likely sitting or walking on Wilmington-area beaches on Christmas Day. “The plane was flying over Asheville and the pilot came on and said we were flying over Asheville on our final approach to Charlotte and I said, ‘That’s it’ and that’s where my great idea came from.” Perry found an insurance company that specializes in promotions like his, and he was on his way. “It has paid off like crazy,” he said. Now, Perry says, people all over Wilmington are asking him if it’s going to snow. He said people have walked up to him well after the deadline asking if they can get in on the deal. That has increased business at his store, but it hasn’t bolstered the number of potential recipients, which he estimates to be around 300. “I’m tickled,” he said. “I mean, I’m praying for it to snow.”
NC audit: Agriculture Department policies flawed RALEIGH (AP) — The measuring sticks that the state agriculture department uses to gauge its success don’t actually tell lawmakers or the public if the agency’s goals are being met, according to a state audit released Wednesday. The report by the Office of the State Auditor found that the three performance measures used by the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services don’t provide insight into whether the agency is meeting its four principal goals, and that the information isn’t even used by lawmakers or legislative staffers. “The department’s key agency indicators are not meaningful measures of its performance,” the audit found. “As a result, decisionmakers may lack information necessary for determining whether the department is achieving the goals for which
Former Charlotte Rep Cunningham dies at age 81 CHARLOTTE (AP) — A former member of the North Carolina Legislature and adviser to House speakers has died. The Long and Son Mortuary Service said former Rep. Pete Cunningham died Tuesday at his Charlotte home at age 81.

He served in the House for 21 years before resigning at the end of 2007 because of health reasons. Cunningham was an adviser to outgoing Speaker Joe Hackney and predecessor Jim
state resources were allocated to it.” The agriculture department, which has a budget of roughly $60 million, has identified four key goals it wants to achieve: educate North Carolina residents about agriculture, protect people from unsafe food products and economic loss due to illegal business practices, prevent the spread of agriculture-related diseases and pests, and improve the department’s overall quality and cost-effectiveness. To measure its progress, the agency has three “key agency indicators” it uses as yard sticks: the net value of agriculture in the state economy, the amount of acres being farmed and the number of North Carolina farms. “None of the department’s three key agency indicators are clearly linked to its stated goals,” the audit found. The audit found that the
three performance measures are essentially ignored by the General Assembly when it comes to making decisions about the agriculture department. The audit reported that staffers with the legislature’s Fiscal Research Division say the indicators are useless for decision making. It also reported that Rep. Dewey Hill, D-Columbus, the chairman of the House Standing Committee on Agriculture, “did not describe any instances where the department’s key agency indicators were used to make decisions.” Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler said in a statement that the agency is revising its policies and procedures, and that new performance measures will likely be one result. He also agreed with the auditor’s recommendation that the agency should develop written policies and plans to ensure accurate data collection.

CHICAGO (AP) — The burning building had been vacant for years, but the firefighters went in anyway — just in case squatters started the blaze and were trapped inside. Then the heavy-timbered roof and a wall suddenly collapsed. Four firefighters were trapped under debris, and two of them died on a day that already was among the most somber on the Chicago Fire Department’s calendar. Exactly 100 years ago, 21 Chicago firefighters died when a wall collapsed at the Union Stock Yards fire, one of the nation’s worst tragedies for firefighters before 9/11. “We were ringing the bell and calling out the names,” said retired fireman Bill Cosgrove, who was at a service honoring the anniversary. “We heard a mayday on the radio that a wall had fallen in.” Most of the firefighters at the service broke down in tears when they found out about the collapse, he said. “It was beyond disbelief,” Cosgrove said. “It was a matter of a few hours and a hundred years later we have the same type of incident.” He said two firefighters at the memorial left to help dig out their colleagues. Other offduty firefighters rushed there as well, said Fire Department spokesman Larry Langford. They joined more than 170 other firefighters on duty who responded to a 911 call about the burning building just before dawn Wednesday, Langford said. He said no one expected the call to be anything more than a routine winter fire. Although the one-story building, which was more than half a century old, had been vacant for years and the utilities had been turned off, firefighters searched it out of concern that homeless people might be inside trying to stay warm. The cause of the fire was under investigation. Authorities speculated that squatters might have been burning debris to keep warm. “The fire had no other way of starting,” Langford said. He said the only people injured were firefighters. The men killed were Edward Stringer, 47, a 12-year department veteran, and Corey Ankum, 34, who joined the department a little over a year ago. They and two others were trapped under the roof debris. Two firefighters were pulled out quickly but rescuers had to use extrication equipment to reach Stringer and Ankum. Every firefighter at the scene on Wednesday “did the best they could to save their brothers,” said Robert Hoff, the city’s fire commissioner. In all, 17 firefighters were injured, and five remained hospitalized Wednesday evening, Hoff said. Hoff and firefighter’s union chief Tom Ryan spoke at an emotional news conference hours after the blaze. “No matter how much experience you have on the job,” Ryan said, “a morning like this still takes you by surprise.” Ryan said the victims’ families “can take solace in knowing that their husbands, their fathers, their brothers are heroes.” Mayor Richard Daley was out of town at the time of the blaze but cut his trip short to return home and address the city. At a news conference Wednesday evening, a tearful Daley said he’d known Ankum and his family well. Ankum’s wife, Demeka, has worked as Daley’s executive assistant for about 10 years. He remembered Ankum as a wonderful husband, father and firefighter who loved his job. “That’s all he wanted to talk about,” Daley said. “Each and every time we lose a member of the police and fire departments, we lose a part of Chicago’s history,” Daley said. Ankum’s brother, Gerald Glover, said he had been with the department for about a year and had a wife and three children. The day’s somber events were felt department-wide, fire officials said. Posted at the department’s training academy was an electronic sign flashing photographs of Ankum and Stringer, along with a message reading, “We wish a speedy recovery to all CFD members injured this day.”

tions. The ball always drops at midnight to kick off the new year. People have parties, drink champagne and throw confetti. During all of these exciting events come New Year’s resolutions. Every year, people ANITA the OVERSTREET make typical resolutions like staying healthy or making better grades in school. New Year’s resolutions are a promise to oneself. These promises are things that an individual feels can be upheld in a definitive area of your life but can be used in a broader aspect as well. I feel that making promises, to yourself and others, is a valid part of day-to-day life. Whether these promises be for the new year, or just ordinary circumstances, they should be something worthwhile. Being able to stay true to your word is oftentimes an accomplishment. Making a resolution succeed or fail is not what the resolution may consist of but what kind of willpower the individual may have within themselves. These promises and goals are supposed to better your life. There is always one thing you have to remember, your attitude toward the situation can mean more than the success or failure. Every year I make goals like trying new activities or working out more.This year I have decided to make my resolution something that is rather hard to accomplish. Over the next year I want to strive to be an all around better person. I have decided to make this as my resolution because of going off to college. Many people say that when you go away you recreate yourself, I do not care to recreate the individual I am. However, I do desire to make a better me. Anita Overstreet is a senior at East Rowan High School and an intern at the Salisbury Post.
DCCC president named one of region’s most influential leaders For the second consecutive year, The Business Journal of the Triad named Davidson County Community College President Mary E. Rittling as one of the region’s most influential and dynamic leaders. The 106 people selected include those who “build consensus, challenge the status quo and move colleagues to action,” according to Douglas W. Copeland Jr., president and publisher of The Business Journal of the Triad. Copeland said the region is blessed with the extraordiRITTLING nary group of leaders whose experience will help in the economic recovery. The list includes those “whose decisions and actions hold serious implications for the region’s economic viability,” he said. The publication’s news staff decides who makes the list. “We cover the news all year round,” said Business Journal of the Triad Editor Mark Sutter. “Prior to the final selection, we call community leaders and people in the communities to get their opinions, as well, and ask for their input. We, of course, look for the nominee’s primary job, the boards they sit on, and if they are influential on those boards.” The newspaper included Rittling’s campus expansion efforts among its reasons for selecting her as one of the region’s most influential leaders for two consecutive years. “Rittling has overseen major expansions at DCCC’s Davidson Campus, including the addition of a Technology and Conference Center and a Transportation Technology Center,” The

They saw the results of their efforts by hand delivering the cans to the volunteers at the Mission and watching the stacks of food grow. “We serve between 250 and 300 families per month, with more families being served around the holiday seasons,” Anne Corriher, coordinator of the Mission, said. “We want to thank China Grove Elementary for their contributions. “We look forward to this day each year, as this is a tradition in our community. The volunteers are very excited to see the children each year.” The donations are tremendous and help so many people in our community.” principal Jenny White said that this event helps the students see that when everyone pitches in and contributes, even a little bit, and that the cumulative effects are tremendous. She would like to thank the students, teachers and parents for supporting this effort.

Lindsay Merritt’s second grade class at Koontz Elementary has been working very hard to help the American Red Cross with the Holiday Mail for Heroes project with a goal of 800 cards. Koontz staff, classes, visitors, parents and a local church were invited to donate cards and to help complete the cards for our troops. The class was surprised when a student teacher/assistant Donna Girty invited her son, Sgt. Tore’ Orlando Girty to visit the class and to put a face with the project. Sgt. Girty spoke with students about how important the holiday cards are for the military stationed in bases around the world, since he was stationed in Korea. The American Red Cross invites everyone to send holiday cards to our American service members, their families, and veterans all over the world. The cards also go to Walter Reed Army Medical Center. The Koontz Elementary School family has completed more than 500 cards in only four days.

Dear Mary: I am reading a second book by you, and I am very inspired. However, I am very worried about giving 10 percent of our income away. That would be more than $700 a month, and we have $30,000 in credit card debt. Plus, I have $130,000 in debt from MARY law school — HUNT not to mention a child in day care. Saving the $700 a month would mean I could pay off law school in 15 years instead of 30. Please help. I want to do your plan, but thinking of giving away all that money makes me sick and makes me feel as if we will be in debt forever. — Catherine M., Illinois
Dear Catherine: I understand; really, I do. Our mortal minds
can’t understand how it is that we can do better with 90 percent of our incomes when we invite God’s supernatural intervention through the act of giving. Let me be perfectly blunt: If your method of managing 100 percent of your resources were a better plan, you wouldn’t be sitting on $160,000 of unsecured debt. I have yet to hear from a single person who has reported that he became a giver and that is what kept him in debt for an extra 15 years or otherwise ruined his life. But I have mountains of letters that attest to the opposite; stepping out in faith and giving when they could not see how they could do it changed their lives in ways they could not have imagined. I think you should ask God to make you willing to give out of a heart of gratitude, with no strings attached and just because you are so grateful for the life with which you’ve been blessed.
Dear Mary: My husband recently had a fender bender. Two years ago, he had a speeding ticket. Our insurance agent (AAA) warned us that if we were to claim the accident, that would be two dings on his record and would raise our annual insurance premium by $500. The estimate for repairs is $1,000. I’d rather not pay for the repairs, but my husband doesn’t want to damage our record further. We have paid more than $15,000 in insurance over the past seven years and never have claimed anything before. What would you do? — Diana, California
Dear Diana: First, stop thinking of your premiums as deposits into an account with your name on it. Insurance doesn’t work that way. Next, recognize that if you were to pay for the repairs out of your pocket, it would take you only two years to recoup the difference in increased annual pre-
miums. If you were to file the claim, you’d pay the increased premium for many years to come. That wouldn’t make good sense. The answer is clear: Pay for the repairs yourself, and then watch carefully how you drive. Also, ask your agent about ways you can reduce your annual premium, e.g., by increasing the deductible, dropping any duplicate coverage and applying for all the discounts you can.

President Barack Obama did something one Sunday this fall that caught many in the national press off guard. He went to church. The First Family walked across Lafayette Square Park to St. John’s Episcopal Church, a parish so close to the White House that many call it the “Church of the Presidents.” The Obamas sat down front and received Holy Communion. Was this really an important news story? Timing was everything. The Obama family had not occupied a public pew — as opposed to attending services at Camp David — since Easter. And this Sept. 19 church visit came shortly after a Pew Research Center poll found that 18 percent of Americans insist on believing that Obama is a Muslim, a stunning number that was up from 11 percent in March 2009. Debates about Obama’s faith didn’t top the Religion Newswriters Association list of the year’s top 10 stories, after figuring so prominently in 2008 and 2009. However, this year’s No. 1 story — fierce debates nationwide about a planned mosque and community center near New York’s Ground Zero — once again forced the president out onto a painfully familiar religious tightrope. The White House even became involved in efforts to convince an obscure Florida pastor to cancel his “International Burn a Koran Day” media event on, of course, Sept. 11. It was that kind of year, with many of the most vital news stories and trends rooted in confusing clashes about religious liberty, law, history and tradition. The remaining nine stories are listed below. Obama has, in numerous speeches and his two memoirs, offered detailed testimonies about his progressive faith and why he feels at home in the United Church of Christ, a freewheeling flock that has long helped define the left wing of Protestantism. Nevertheless, only 34 percent of Pew poll participants said the president is a Christian and a stunning 43 percent could not identify his current religion. Only 46 percent of Democrats, and 43 percent of African-Americans, said Obama is a Christian. One Baptist progressive was blunt. While the president must continue to defend the “American principle of religious freedom for all, including Muslims and non-believers,” it wouldn’t hurt for Obama to join a local church, said the Rev. J. Brent Walker, executive director of the Baptist Joint Committee. “His recent Democratic

predecessors did just that,” noted Walker. “The public remembers pictures of President Clinton leaving Foundry Memorial United Methodist Church with Bible in hand during his presidency. President Carter taught Sunday school at First Baptist Church of the City of Washington, D.C. ... President Obama should not do this simply for show; but an active, visible practice of his Christianity would help counter misunderstandings and lies about his faith.” Here’s the rest of the RNA top 10: 2. The catastrophic earthquake in Haiti sparks relief efforts by many different kinds of faith-based groups. An independent group of Baptists from Idaho spends some time in a Haitian jail after accusations of child smuggling. 3. Pope Benedict XVI is accused of helping to delay actions against pedophile priests in Ireland, Germany, the United States and other countries while, as a cardinal, he led a key Vatican office between 1981 and 2005. Several bishops resign. 4. The Tea Party — Religious Right believers or talkradio fans attacking government spending? Mormon Glenn Beck pushes both buttons on the National Mall. 5. The nation’s Catholic bishops oppose the White House health-care reform bill, in yet another clash over public funding for abortion. The bill passes, with strong support from many liberal Catholics and other religious progressives. 6. The General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (USA) votes — for the fourth time — to ordain noncelibate gay clergy. Once again, regional presbyteries still have the option to say “no.” 7. Hard times force cuts in many religious headquarters, from the long-suffering world of old-line Protestantism to conservative groups, such as Focus on the Family. 8. Religious groups debate whether links exist between traditional forms of many faiths and the suicides

After accidents, ‘Spider-Man’ will resume with new safety measures
A banner covers the front of the Foxwoods Theater on 42nd street in New York for the play Spider-Man: Turn off the Dark. A 31-year-old actor on the set of the Broadway musical ‘Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark’ fell about 30 feet during a performance and was taken to a hospital, fire officials said Monday.
BOSTON (AP) — Fred Foy, an announcer best known for his booming, passionate lead-ins to “The Lone Ranger” radio and television series, died Wednesday of natural causes at his Woburn, Mass., home, his daughter said. He was 89. N a n c y Foy said her f a t h e r worked as an actor before landing the job as the announcer and narrator on “The Lone FOY Ranger” radio show in 1948. The show’s live lead-in introduced its masked cowboy hero and his trusted horse with the line: “A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty ‘HiYo Silver!’ ... The Lone Ranger!” Foy’s dramatic introduction and narration, performed in a powerful baritone, were so good it “made many people forget there were others before him,” said radio historian Jim Harmon, who called him “perhaps the greatest announcer-narrator in the history of radio drama. “He pronounced words like no one else ever had — ‘SIL-ver,’ ‘hiss-TOR-ee.’ But hearing him, you realized everyone else had been wrong,” Harmon wrote in his book, “Radio Mystery and Adventure and Its Appearances in Film, Television and Other Media.” Foy never tired of giving a spirited rendition of “The Lone Ranger” introduction to anyone, anywhere, who would ask, his daughter said. “Dad would do the intro at the drop of a hat,” she said. “He loved it. He loved for us to let people know so he would be asked to do it.” Foy was born in Detroit in 1921, graduated from that city’s Eastern High School in
1938 and landed a job on the announcing staff of radio station WXYZ in Detroit in 1942. He was drafted into the Army that year and served in an Armed Forces Radio unit in Cairo during World War II. Foy returned to WXYZ in 1945, then three years later won the job on “The Lone Ranger,” even stepping into the lead role for one radio broadcast when actor Brace Beemer had laryngitis. Foy’s son, Fritz Foy, said the introduction’s signature opening line, “Hi-Yo, Silver!” was done by an actor on the radio show, though his father belted it out for the TV series. Foy also performed on radio series including “The Green Hornet” and “Sgt. Preston of the Yukon.” In 1960, Foy began working for the ABC network. He spent five years as an announcer on the “The Dick Cavett Show” and narrated documentaries. He left ABC in the mid-1980s and later retired to Woburn, Nancy Foy said. Foy is survived by his wife of 63 years, Frances Foy, their three children and three grandchildren.

Bush memoir sells 2 million copies NEW YORK (AP) — Make that 2 million books sold for former President George W. Bush. The Crown Publishing Group said Wednesday that Bush’s “Decision Points” passed the 2 million mark less than 2 months after its official release. Published in early November, Bush’s memoir about his key presidential decisions and other choices has topped the best-seller list on Amazon.com for weeks. More than 2.6 million hardcovers are in print after an initial run of 1.5 million. The 2 million books sold include nearly 200,000 e-editions.
night cancellation only upon their arrival, was tempered by their concerns about safety. Mary Kelly, who drove up with three friends from Sayreville, N.J., said a Nov. 11 show she had hoped to see also had been canceled, and that she won’t try to see another one until the production is fixed. “I’m concerned about the cast’s safety and also the audience’s.” she said. David Lee, 29, was hoping
terest,” he said. “I like train wrecks. I would actually love to go in and have them have to close the show” midway. The production has been under investigation by the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration since Nov. 2 at the request of the state Labor Department, OSHA said. Accidents during theater performances are not uncommon, especially in shows offBroadway where stage equipment is being tested for the first time. In 2004 an actress fell through a trapdoor during rehearsal of “Fiddler on the Roof” on Broadway and needed stitches. In 1999, a flying box carrying two actors crashed to the stage during a performance of the musical “Aida” in Atlanta. However, stagehands are far more likely to be hurt than performers, OSHA records show. Between 1997 and 2007 the federal agency investigated 35 accidents in live-action show business, with at least 25 involving stagehands and technicians.

Fred Foy, famous for Lone Ranger intro, dies at 89
Hampshire. He said his brother is in “as good spirits as he can be,” is expected to make a full recovery and will surely return to the stage. “He’s a dancer. He landed on his feet. If he didn’t land on his feet, he wouldn’t be with us,” said Patrick Tierney, 24, of Plaistow, N.H. “He has a strong body and an amazing attitude.” Outside the theater on Wednesday, lead actors Reeve Carney and Patrick Page, who respectively portray Spider-Man and his nemesis Green Goblin, signed programs and assured fans that the show would go on. Fans and passers-by shouted out “Be safe!” Carney said called Tierney’s fall “an unfortunate accident” but was confident that performances would resume. “I’ve been at this a long time and everyone else has. I have faith that it’ll go forward, he said. “Accidents are horrible but they happen on every show,” Page said. “We feel very safe and very cared for by our director and producer.” The disappointment of ticket holders, many of whom learned about the Wednesday

make it special. The musical has 38 separate moves in which actors are put in harnesses to go up in the air. Cox said the investigation is continuing into precisely what went wrong in Tierney’s accident and who is to blame. Investigators said they are looking into whether it was caused by equipment failure or human error. “We’re also making sure that the actors and the stagehands know that if everything is not right, they can say, ‘We’re not going to go,’” Cox said. Some Broadway actors have expressed concern about the safety of the “Spider-Man” cast and crew, given that they are performing acrobatic stunt work that needs to be repeated eight times a week, some of it unprecedented on a stage. “Perhaps they should have thought twice about what some of these stunts were,” said Marc Kudisch, whose most recent Broadway credit was in the musical “9 to 5.” “It’s not like doing a stunt in a movie.” Patrick Tierney said his brother would be released from the hospital Friday or Saturday and would complete his recovery at home in New
to see the musical before he flies back home to Singapore next week, but this week’s remaining shows are sold out. “I’m disappointed because I was really looking forward to seeing a Julie Taymor show, but I’m kind of concerned with the safety of the actors,” Lee said. Alan Krach, a theatergoer from Doylestown, Pa., held a ticket outside the theater after the matinee he had expected to see was postponed. That has happened twice to him now. He got a new ticket for a Saturday. “This has all the makings of a very memorable show,” Krach said. Reports of the injuries haven’t changed his interest, “as long as they don’t fall on me.” He added, though, “I don’t want anyone to get hurt.” Richie Wood, a 33-year-old administrative assistant who was also at the box office, said he wanted a ticket because he didn’t think the show would be around much longer. “I don’t want to see people get hurt but it piques my in-

NEW YORK (AP) — The curtain will go up again today on “Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark” after the producers of the accident-plagued Broadway musical agreed to new safety precautions to prevent another fall like the one that left a stuntman seriously injured. The state Labor Department said it is satisfied the producers of the $65 million musical have made the necessary adjustments. Wednesday night’s performance was canceled so that the cast and crew could rehearse the new precautions, which include a requirement that a second person ensure that the harnesses used by performers during the show’s high-flying stunts have been put on properly. The much-anticipated production, teaming “Lion King” creator Julie Taymor with songwriters Bono and The Edge of U2, has had a rocky route to Broadway. Already the most expensive show in Broadway history, it has been plagued by technical glitches, money woes and three other injuries, including a concussion and two broken wrists. The show has been in previews for a month, and its official Broadway opening has twice been postponed. It is now set for early February. The fourth accident came Monday night, when Christopher W. Tierney, a stunt double playing Spider-Man, plunged about 30 feet into a stage pit, despite a safety harness that should have prevented the spill. Tierney was scheduled for back surgery Wednesday, his brother Patrick said. The announcement that Wednesday night’s sold-out performance wouldn’t take place came just three hours before showtime at the Foxwoods Theatre. Wednesday’s matinee performance had been canceled earlier. “At this point we are satisfied they have put in place the appropriate controls,” said Maureen Cox, director of safety and health for the New York State Department of Labor. State officials had no authority to close the show but could have disallowed the heart-stopping stunts that

Neighbors like to drive with a buzz on Dear Amy: At a recent neighborhood gathering, one of the couples (childless, late 30s) revealed that when they go out for nice dinners, they usually have two or three cocktails at home just prior to leaving their house. That way, they explained, they “only need to order one or two more” at the restaurant during their meal, thereby saving on their tab. The rest of us were quite taken aback to them hear readily admit that the husband drives just after having these drinks in a relatively ASK short period AMY of time. One person verbalized his concern, and the driver admitted that he definitely has a “buzz on” when he gets into his car. When someone expressed the hope that this driver would never hurt anyone present or anyone that we care about, he just chuckled. His wife sees nothing wrong with this behavior. We know that we can’t watch their every move or call 911 each time we see them leave their house at dinnertime. Short of that, though, we
feel some obligation, beyond talking to them again, to try to prevent a tragedy. We’re not sure which we would feel worse about — the thought that they might hurt themselves or others during one of these drives, or that we could have prevented it. — Frightened Neighbor Dear Frightened: If you know this driver is impaired and you see him get in his car, you can call the police and ask for them to be on the lookout for the car, but unless they have some obvious reason to pull the car over (the police need to witness it), they won’t intervene. The only people who can truly prevent a drunken driving incident are the people choosing to drink and drive. You and your neighbors should do what you would wish anyone would do, and tell them, “It’s the holiday season, and I hope you realize that if other people do the same thing you do, the roads will be crowded with impaired drivers. I just don’t want you or anyone else to get hurt.” You might embarrass them into better choices. Dear Amy: I have been married for a year. My son is 22 (doesn’t live with us), and my husband’s two sons are older and married.
We have been together for three years. My son has been invited to one event in that time. I thought that after we were married he would be included in some of their family gatherings. My husband asked me at one of the last parties to bring my son and my mom. I said I couldn’t do that unless they were specifically invited. The next day they were invited. I told my husband that I had made other plans. I have no desire to go somewhere that my son isn’t welcome. Even though he is invited, now I feel I’m pushing something on them. I may be going overboard on this, but my son is my family. Am I expecting too much? — Disappointed Dear Disappointed: You asked for an invitation on your son’s behalf, and you received it. Now you say the invitation isn’t really an invitation. I agree with you that your in-laws are not being inclusive, and yet they seem to be trying. Your son will enter this larger family by degrees. You will help the process along by being a little pushy at first. You could also help promote
the blending process by hosting extended family events and being as inclusive as you hope they will be. Dear Amy: Responding to the letter about the young neighbor girls who screamed continuously while they played, my daughter was a screamer too. It drove us nuts. No amount of correction seemed to make any difference. Then one day, when she was about 6, she went across the street to play at a friend’s house. She was home about an hour later, very upset. When I asked her what happened, she said her friend’s mother had sent her home because she was screaming when they played. No more screaming after that! — Grateful Mom Dear Mom: Correction from an adult other than your parents is high impact.

Get questions answered about statins Dear Dr. Gott: I am a 71year-old female in good health. I take 40 milligrams of diltiazem, and my blood pressure is under good control. A recent blood test revealed my cholesterol to be 286, my HDL 82, LDL 188 and triglycerides 81. My doctor prescribed 40 milligrams lovastatin, but I would prefer not to take this medication. My total cholesterol has been 200 higher or since I was 40, and my HDL been over DR. PETER has 80. May I GOTT have your opinion? Dear Reader: High-cholesterol levels in the blood are considered to be a major risk factor in the development of coronary-artery disease, heart attack and stroke. When cholesterol accumulates in the walls of the arteries and combines with cellular debris, plaque forms, impairing the flow of blood. Eventually, clots may form, the arteries become blocked, and problems occur. There are two primary types of cholesterol — good and bad. The good is known as the HDL (high-density lipoproteins), and the bad is LDL (low-density lipopro-
teins). According to the American Heart Association, total cholesterol of under 200 is desirable and puts a person at a substantially lower risk for heart disease. Levels between 200 and 239 are borderline, signifying a person has twice the risk than someone below 200. HDL levels for men lower than 40 and 50 for women signify a major risk factor for heart disease. Levels of 60 and higher are extremely good, with lower probability of heart disease. LDL readings lower than 100 are optimal. Triglyceride levels vary according to age and gender. Levels under 150 are considered to be normal. Levels beyond that are borderline to high. While your total cholesterol is higher than the recommended figure, your HDL is exceptionally good. Your LDL puts you in a borderlinehigh bracket. Because extenuating factors such as family history come into play, your primary-care physician or cardiologist should make the decision as to the appropriate level for optimal health. If diet is to blame, this is relatively simple to modify. Cut out iced cream, butter and other high-fat foods. Reduce your consumption of cheese, eggs and whole milk. Stay away from tropical oils in cookies and pastries. If inactivity is to blame, speak with your physician about a
program of exercise. If heredity comes into play, then you may be doing all you can without outside assistance. A number of over-thecounter cholesterol-reducing products are available. Ask whether a trial might be appropriate. If your physician has given you a statin drug to inhibit your liver’s natural production of cholesterol and you are opposed, make another appointment to discuss the matter. I don’t blame you for expressing concern. There has been a lot of controversy surrounding the side effects of statin drugs. Get answers, and be guided by what he or she says.

Someone who believes in you will put you onto to something of significance that could turn out to be impressive. It is likely to be a project that neither could do without the other, but which teamwork will render a success. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You’ll deliberately make it a point to draw out others in order to make them feel important, and that’s why friends will be thinking you’re a pretty nifty person. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — For those of you who have merely been killing time, come out of your playpen, turn off the TV and do something constructive. You’ll feel a lot better about yourself when not goofing off. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — Instead of spending all your time in your office or home, plan to get outside and see the world around you. Even just running errands will refresh you quite a bit. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Your perceptions regarding the desires and requirements of the public will be right on target, so if your work requires you to deal directly with the hoi polloi, go ahead and make your points. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — When involved with others about doing something new, let them do the brawny stuff while you handle the brainy parts. It could be a prefect match, if everyone does his/her part. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — You could be a bit luckier than usual in your material interests, in a couple of ways: you might receive an early Christmas gift, or a bonus could be in the making. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — There isn’t likely to be anything more important to you than having the mobility and freedom to do what you want. Avoid involvements that would limit your independence, if you can. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — In most cases, it is foolhardy to depend on a hunch or an intuitive feeling when it involves something important. However, at this point there’s a good chance that your impression could be right on the money. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Taking some kind of recreational break could do you a world of good, even if it is just a short timeout from work. It’ll serve to refresh you and give you what you need to finish the job at hand. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — There is a good chance a new responsibility will be dumped in your lap. Do your best, because others will be observing how you handle things in hopes you can fit into a larger position. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — You’re likely to have more energy than usual, which is good and bad. If you eschew activity, it’ll put you in a bad mood. Keeping busy, however, will serve to inspire you. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Friends and associates are likely to be looking for ways to repay all that you’ve done for them in the past. Your prior good works will be returned to you twice over. uniTed FeaTure SyndicaTe

Losing Your Medicare Advantage Plan, Dec. 31?
12 67 38
John Maynard Keynes, an English economist who pioneered full employment, said, “The long run is a misleading guide to current affairs.” Bridge deals can be like that. You take the percentage play and it loses, whereas an inferior line would have worked. You know that in the long run you will be a winner, but the current loss on the scoresheet or lightening of your wallet hurts nonetheless. In today’s deal South is in five clubs. Will he make it after West begins the defense with three rounds of spades? Anyone who glances at all 52 cards will answer in the affirmative, claiming it is trivial. But in the real world, with the defenders’ hands hidden, it is easy for South to fail if West is awake. North made a negative double, promising four hearts. His second-round three-spade cue-bid asked South to convert to three notrump if he had a spade stopper. When West led the spade ace, East played his 10, starting a high-low (echo) to show his doubleton. West cashed the spade king and continued with the spade queen. What
did South do now? Needing the rest of the tricks, declarer trumped with dummy’s jack. Then he played a club to his ace, but West smoothly dropped the queen. Thinking that was a singleton, South led a heart to dummy’s king, then played a club to his nine. Imagine his chagrin when West produced the 10. This was an example of playing the card you were known to hold. When East didn’t overruff dummy’s club jack, West was marked with the queen.

SALISBURY POST
About three in every ten Americans will be involved in : an alcohol-related crash at some time in their lives. [ref.] http://www.madd.org/Drunk-Driving/Drunk-Driving/Statistics/AllStats.aspx#STAT_4
The Designate a Driver initiative asks motorists to commit a labor of love by always designating a sober driver for celebrations.
Getting involved is easy, and anyone can participate. If your celebrations include alcohol, simply plan ahead by designating a sober driver.
"Holidays tend be dangerous times on the roads. It’s important to celebrate, have fun and stay safe. Designating sober drivers and finding safe alternative transportation are great ways to ensure that your holidays end as safely as they begin." Laura Dean-Mooney MADD National President
• Don’t rely on coffee to sober up your guests. Only time can make someone sober.
• Don’t rely on someone’s physical appearance to determine if he or she has had too much to drink.
• Beer and wine are just as intoxicating as hard liquor. A 12-ounce can of beer, a five-ounce glass of wine, a 12-ounce wine cooler and an ounce and a half of liquor contain the same amount of alcohol.
• Mixers won’t help dilute alcohol. Carbonated mixers like club soda or tonic water cause alcohol to be absorbed into a person’s system more quickly. Fruit juice and other sweet mixers mask the taste of alcohol and may cause people to drink more.
Approaching a guest who has had too much to drink can feel a little awkward. And, the first time is the hardest. But it is certainly easier to deal with than your quest becoming a statistic. Approach your guest and explain that your actions could save his or her life and that you cannot let them drive home because you care. Offer to let the guest spend the night, call a cab, or ask a sober guest to drive the intoxicated person home. If you see a guest who is starting to consume too much alcohol, here are some tips you can use: • Engage him/her in a conversation to slow down the drinking. • Offer high protein food. • Offer to make the next drink and use less alcohol.
• Don’t be afraid to insist that they sit out the sipping for awhile or switch to beverages of the non-alcoholic variety– sparkling cider makes a great substitute for a glass of champagne.

Will Smith stay?
Moore the difference on UConn’s historic night
BY MIKE CRANSTON Associated Press
BY NANCY ARMOUR Associated Press
HARTFORD, Conn. — With a minute left, Maya Moore stood up on the bench and whirled a towel above her head, the grin on her face so bright it could light up all of Connecticut. Just when it seems there’s nothing more she can do, the senior All-American finds a way to dazzle anew. In a game for the ages, Moore put on a performance that was more than equal to the occasion. “Every night when you need her to be at her best, she’s at her best,” UConn coach Geno Auriemma said. And because of that, topranked UConn has surpassed
the 88-game winning streak set by John Wooden’s UCLA men’s team from 1971-74. Moore had a career-high 41 points and 10 rebounds Tuesday night, setting the tone as Connecticut blew by No. 22 Florida State 93-62 for win No. 89 in a row. “You take those 41 away and it’s a little better ballgame,” Seminoles coach Sue Semrau said. “She’s as tough as nails.” Moore has been the constant in these 89 games, a streak that has spanned 21/2 seasons and two national titles. Like Diana Taurasi, Rebecca Lobo, Sue Bird and all the other UConn greats who came before her, she is as
CHARLOTTE — Yes, Carolina receiver Steve Smith has put his house up for sale. Yes, he’s had a chat with Panthers owner Jerry Richardson. It doesn’t mean he wants to play at a different address next season. At least not yet. The four-time Pro Bowl pick on Tuesday addressed speculation — sort of — about his future after it was revealed recently that his Charlotte-area home is on the market. The 31-year-old Smith is the oldest position player left after an offseason roster overhaul left the Panthers (2-12) wallowing with the worst record in the NFL. Smith has been held to 43 catches for 537 yards and two

touchdowns — the last coming in Week 2 — and is on pace for his worst statistical season in a year in which he’s been healthy. “As far as my contract, I’m getting ready for Pittsburgh and then Atlanta,” said Smith, whose team visits the Steelers on Thursday. “Then I will discuss with my wife and my children like I do everything else — like I put my house on the market.” Smith said that decision was made “because of the addition that we were thinking about adding to our family.” He added his house has been for sale since June, long before the Panthers began their poor season. Smith is under contract through 2012, but it has been

REMEMBERING 2010
BY LUKE DECOCK Raleigh News and Observer
RALEIGH — When the day comes that Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski no longer feels the same competitive edge that has fueled him for 36 years, to four national basketball titles and Olympic gold, he promises to walk away. That day came for Dean Smith 14 years ago, after 879 wins. Krzyzewski reached that milestone Monday KRZYZEWSKI with a 98-72 win over Elon but isn’t ready to walk away. Not even close. “Coach looks like he’s just starting,” Duke guard Nolan Smith said. “He’s fresh. He’s eager for more wins. He’s in his prime.” For the next week, Krzyzewski and Smith will stand side-by-side in the record books, the two men whose personalities came to represent their fiercely rival programs united, briefly, by history. On Dec. 29, against UNC Greensboro, Krzyzewski will have the chance to pass Smith, and then, what’s next? What else could possibly be on Krzyzewski’s todo list at this point in his career? National titles, Olympic gold — Krzyzewski has them. He’s 23 wins from joining mentor Bob Knight atop the men’s all-time wins list, a plateau he could reach, and surpass, as early as the ACC Tournament in March. Smith retired at 66, but at 63 Krzyzewski has been adding to his portfolio of responsibilities in recent years, not cutting back, signing up for another Olympic cycle. It’s entirely within the realm of possibility he could go flying by Smith and Knight and everyone else, becoming the first — and potentially only — coach to get to 1,000 men’s basketball victories. “He could have won more games if he lingered,” Krzyzewski said of Smith. “Somebody like him or somebody like me will not linger, because we didn’t get in this to linger. ... “I would hope that as long as I’m coaching, I will be as competitive as I can be and not linger. And not linger. That’s why I’m glad we won this game and we can get on to better things,

Sports quirks Some dishes on sports menu were half-baked BY FRED LIEF Associated Press
Maybe Lindsey Vonn will have something else on the menu for the 2014 Winter Games. In 2010, however, her choice was strictly dairy. In the days leading to the Olympic downhill, Vonn was aching so badly from a bruised shin she wondered if she would be able to race. She tried numbing cream and painkillers, and then came the blue-plate special — cheese. She smeared it over her wounded limb as a home remedy, giving cheese connoisseurs the world over reason to celebrate. So as
race day approached, the talk was not only of Vancouver gold but Austrian curd. Cheese was not the only unusual side dish in sports in 2010. This was a year, after all, when Mike Tyson took to pigeon racing, a fake national soccer team from Togo played a match in Bahrain, a New Zealand lawn bowling team was found guilty of match-fixing and a New Jersey Nets promotion offered fans free assistance filling out income tax forms. Vonn injured her leg in Austria, and perhaps felt some allegiance in her cheese selection. No run-of-the mill cheddar or
provolone for her. She chose topfen — an acidic, semisoft cheese common to Austria but not likely found at your local deli counter. Her unorthodox treatment set off conversations in cheese shops from Vienna to Manhattan, and raised the possibility she might rinse the cheese from her leg with a vintage Bordeaux. Vonn indeed proved a big cheese in Vancouver. She won the downhill, although a few days of rest because of the weather may have done more for her than all the topfen in the Alps.

He was the principal owner of the New York Yankees, but commander was really more like it. John Wooden was the Wizard of WestAssoCiAted Press wood, a nickname he never much cared for, George steinbrenner was always known for throwing his although the poet in him might have enjoyed the alliteration. money around with the Yankees.
Teacher — not something with a whiff of alchemy and mysterious doings — would have been closer to the mark. For that’s how generations of basketball players at UCLA came to regard him. He won plenty of championships, but what mattered most was the lifetime of lessons imparted. Wooden and Steinbrenner — two towering figures in sports — died in 2010, each having transformed his game in a distinct but enduring way. Wooden, the only member of the Basketball Hall of Fame as a player and coach, had roots that practically went back to peach

Moir pairings set From staff reports
Pairings for the Sam Moir Christmas Classic were finalized with the results of Tuesday night’s games. Davie’s undefeated boys, who last won the event in 2004, will be topseeded, along with Salisbury’s girls, who will be seeking their eighth straight title. Salisbury’s girls (5-1) are prohibitive favorites to make it eight straight, and as the No. 1 seed they’ll only have to win two games. While Davie, which already has beaten West, Carson and East, has to be the favorite in the boys bracket, there are many talented teams in the field capable of beating the War Eagles on a given night. West and Salisbury have played much of the basketball season shorthanded because of football success. Davie made a marathon football run as well, but Davie’s football and basketball squads are separate groups. Boys seeds are: 1. Davie (10-0), 2. North (5-2), 3. Salisbury (3-3), 4. Carson (4-6), 5. West (3-6), 6. South (2-7) and 7. East (0-9). Girls seeds are: 1. Salisbury (5-1), 2. West (7-2), 3. Carson (7-3), 4. South (45), 5. North (3-4), 6. East (3-6) and 7. Davie (3-7). Seeds are based strictly on preChristmas won-lost percentage, and some lower seeds have beaten higher seeds. Salisbury’s third-seeded boys own a victory against No. 2 seed North, while No. 5 West split with North and beat No. 4 Carson. Carson’s third-seeded girls own a win over second-seeded West, while No. 7 Davie beat No. 6 East. The tournament begins on Tuesday, Dec. 28, with the South and North girls tangling at noon to open the festivities. The first day features the 2 vs. 7, 3 vs. 6 and 4 vs. 5 matchups. The No. 1 seeds join the tournament on the second day for semifinal action. Six games are scheduled daily. Admission is $6 per day for adults and $3 for ages 5-12. Pairings are in Scoreboard.
Prep basketball Davie’s boys will carry a 10-0 record into the Moir Christmas tournament after beating Forbush 68-46 on the road on Wednesday. The War Eagles overcame a slow start and foul trouble for high-scoring Nate Jones. Davie limited Forbush to 10 points in the second half and got big offensive efforts from freshman Caleb Martin (19 points) and high-flying veteran Shannon Dillard (16). Davie’s girls (3-7) weren’t in a position to improve their No. 7 seed for the tournament, but they’ll come to
Goodman Gym with some momentum after beating Forbush 55-44. Boys DAVIE (68) — Ca. Martin 19, Dillard 16, R. Martin 9, Co. Martin 8, Jones 5, Tatum 3, Whaley 2, Absher, Ray, Simmons, Miller. Davie 18 23 15 12 — 68 Forbush 21 15 6 4 — 46
Tough loss for Eagles The North Hills boys basketball team lost to Gastonia Forestview 6556 on Wednesday in the championship game of the All-Star Holiday Classic held at Queens. North Hills coach Jason Causby felt a 5-0 run by Forestview to close the first half and another 5-0 burst by the Jaguars to start the second half was pivotal. North Hills (10-7) worked hard to build a double-digit lead but watched it evaporate very quickly. Chris Johnson scored 22 points for the Jaguars, who hit nine 3s, while tourney MVP Tyshem Sharpe had 17. Oshon West scored 25 for North Hills and made the all-tournament team. Moussa Doucara also was a tournament standout. He scored 13 in the final. “It was three tough games in three days and we just ran out of gas a little bit in the fourth quarter,” Causby said. “We lost the momentum there at the end of the first half and it was hard to get it back.” Boys NORTH HILLS (56) — West 25, Doucara 13, Joshua 5, Wright 5, Hillie 4, Nunn 4, Ward, Griffin, Tracey. N. Hills 19 Forestview 14

Senior Y basketball Miles Blake scored 18 points to lead Love Christian Center to a 36-36 win against St. John’s. Andrew Parnell scored 12 for St. John’s.

Boise State dominates Utah LAS VEGAS (AP) — Doug Martin shook Boise State out of its brief postseason funk with an Boise St. 26 84-yard touchdown Utah 3 run in the second quarter, and the 10th-ranked Broncos dominated the rest of the way Wednesday night to beat No. 20 Utah 26-3 in the MAACO Bowl. Boise State had turned the ball over three times and was trailing 3-0 when Martin went up the middle and outran Utah defenders down the left side to give the Broncos a much-needed spark. From there, Boise State’s
defense shut the Utes out and Kellen Moore threw two touchdown passes as the Broncos cruised to an easy win. The victory was small consolation for Boise State, which missed out on a possible Rose Bowl appearance on two missed field goals last month against Nevada. But the dominating win against a team that was at one time ranked No. 6 in the country was a reminder why the Broncos rode high in the polls before suffering their only loss in two years. “Boise State is a heck of a football team,” Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said.
Panthers face battered Steelers PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Steelers didn’t know they’d officially made the playoffs when they left Heinz Field on Sunday night, surprise losers to the Jets in a game they probably didn’t need to win but certainly didn’t want to lose. They learned only later that a computer determined they were in. There weren’t any known celebrations or popping of champagne corks. “Why we play is to win our division,” wide receiver Hines Ward said. “We’ll win our division and take care of the things we control. And the good thing about it is we don’t need any help.” No, the NFL schedule maker has given them all the help they need, serving up a Thursday night home game against the Carolina Panthers (2-12), owners of the NFL’s worst offense, worst passing game and worst record. If the Steelers (10-4) beat Carolina and the Browns (5-9) on Jan. 2, they’ll win the AFC North and be seeded No. 2 in the playoffs, no matter what Baltimore (10-4) does against the Browns and Bengals (3-11). That’s all the incentive the Steelers need to play their second game in five days, a challenge for a beaten-up team regardless of its opponent. With safety Troy Polamalu (Achilles’) still out, the offensive line thinned by injuries, tight end Heath Miller recovering from a concussion and quarterback Ben Roethlisberger playing with a face shield protecting a broken nose and an oversized shoe
guarding a still-healing foot, the Panthers could be exactly what the Steelers need to get well. Coach Mike Tomlin tried motivating his players by pointing out the Panthers are younger and should be able to bounce back faster on short rest. His players merely laughed. Carolina coach John Fox said, a one-time Steelers assistant under Chuck Noll, has been around the NFL much too long to let his players believe that. “You always have to come up with something,” Fox said. “Tell Mike that was a good one.” While anything is possible in the NFL — the Steelers lost to the onewin Browns in a Thursday night road game last season — Pittsburgh presents significant matchup problems for the Panthers, who have one strength but a whole lot of weaknesses. Carolina is one of the NFL’s best running teams, with Jonathan Stewart averaging 115 yards and 5.9 yards per carry in his last four games. He has 270 yards in his last two. The problem: Pittsburgh’s run defense is one of the best in league history, giving up an average of 63.4 yards per game. The Steelers have permitted one 100-yard rusher in 48 games, the equivalent of three seasons. “It’s going to be tough,” Panthers center Ryan Kalil said. “They have a great front. ... It’s tough, especially this week, because you don’t get to watch much film.”

Federer, Nadal square off in friendly match Associated Press ZURICH — Roger Federer beat Rafael Nadal 4-6, 6-3, 6-3 Tuesday to open a twomatch exhibition series for charity between the world’s top ranked tennis players. Federer sealed victory on Nadal’s serve with a backhand crosscourt return in front of 10,000 fans at soldout Hallenstadion indoor arena. This was the first time they have played each other in Federer’s home country. The match in Switzerland raised money for Federer’s foundation, which backs educational work with children in Africa. It currently supports projects in Ethiopia, Malawi, Tanzania, Zimbabwe and his mother’s native South Africa. The rivals will be in Madrid today for a return match in the top-ranked Nadal’s home country in support of his foundation. “It was an unforgettable experience. I’m very happy to be part of this event,” Nadal said. The good-natured match was the showpiece of a telethon-like event broadcast live by Swiss television. In tournament play, Nadal leads Federer 14-8. Federer won their most recent meeting, a 6-3, 3-6, 6-1 decision in the title match of last month’s ATP World Tour Finals in London. BASEBALL NEW YORK — The New York Yankees lowered spending on players by $12 million this year, cutting payroll by $5 million and slashing their MLB-leading luxury tax by more than $7
million. New York was hit with an $18 million luxury tax by the league. The tax was New York’s lowest since 2003 and down from $25.7 million last year, when the Yankees won the World Series. • BOSTON — Reliever Bobby Jenks and the Boston Red Sox have finalized a $12 million, two-year contract. The former Chicago White Sox closer joins a bullpen that already has Jonathan Papelbon and Daniel Bard working the late innings. Jenks should provide insurance if one of them falters, with a chance that the right-hander could move into the closing job. • CHICAGO — Pete Rose Jr., the son of the career hits leader who is banned from baseball, will run a rookie league team of the Chicago White Sox. Rose Jr. played 21 seasons of minor league baseball with many organizations, including the Sox. NBA LOS ANGELES — Phil Jackson says humbug to the NBA’s Christmas schedule. The 11-time NBA champion coach restated his longtime opposition to Christmas games before his Los Angeles Lakers faced the Milwaukee Bucks in their final tuneup before Saturday’s holiday visit from the Miami Heat. “It’s like Christian holidays don’t mean anything to them any more,” Jackson said. Jackson is the son of two Christian ministers, and he famously wrote a book on his spiritual growth related to basketball. The Lakers have played

BOXING NEW YORK — Manny Pacquiao will fight Shane Mosley in his next bout May 7 in Las Vegas. Bob Arum says Pacquiao chose the bout because Mosley is the most accomplished and famous boxer in the field of candidates.

The 32-year-old Pacquiao (52-3-2, 38 KOs) is on top of the boxing world.
The NBA roundup ... CHARLOTTE — After a miserable start to the season in which he took shots at his players and himself, Larry Brown is out as coach of the Charlotte Bobcats in another messy exit in his well-traveled career. Former Charlotte Hornets coach Paul Silas, who has been out of the league since 2005, will direct the team for the rest of the season on an interim basis. Owner Michael Jordan announced Brown’s departure in a news release Wednesday, a day after the Bobcats were outscored 31-12 in the fourth quarter in their fourth straight loss. “I met with Coach Brown two weeks ago about the team’s performance and what we could do to improve it,” Jordan said. “We met again this morning after practice. The team has clearly not lived up to either of our expectations and we both agreed that a change was necessary.” The 70-year-old Brown, a Hall of Fame coach who was in the third season of his 13th professional and college head coaching job, had been upset with the makeup and effort of his team for weeks. The Bobcats (9-19) had lost three games by 31 or more points in 10 days before Tuesday’s fourth-quarter meltdown against Oklahoma City. Brown, whose contract runs through the end of the 2011-12 season, didn’t immediately return a message on his cell phone seeking comment. But his agent, Joe Glass, said Brown will be back on the bench soon. “Larry is going to coach again,” Glass said. “He’s got a plenty of energy.” Glass and Bobcats general manager Rod Higgins declined to discuss details of any buyout or if Brown will be paid through the end of his original four-year contract. Brown leaves with an 88-108 mark with the Bobcats. His 1,327 victories in the ABA and NBA are nine shy of supplanting Don Nelson for the most all-time. “This was a difficult decision for both of us, but one that needed to be made,” Jordan said. “I want to thank Larry for everything he has done for our team. He has played a key role in this organization’s development.” Higgins said they didn’t contact the 67year-old Silas until late Wednesday afternoon and “both sides were OK” with Silas getting an interim label. Silas was a popular figure when he coached the Hornets through their move to
New Orleans in 2002. Celtics 84, 76ers 80 BOSTON — Ray Allen scored 22 points, and Paul Pierce recovered after missing his first seven shots to score 11 in the second half and lead the Celtics to their 14th straight victory on Wednesday night. Shaquille O’Neal had 13 points and nine rebounds, but he missed two free throws with 1:02 left and Boston nursing a two-point lead. Spurs 109, Nuggets 103 SAN ANTONIO — Manu Ginobili and Gary Neal scored 22 points apiece, and San Antonio beat Denver — playing without AllStar Carmelo Anthony because of death in his family — for its 10th straight victory. The Spurs reached their second doubledigit winning streak already this season and improved their NBA-best record to 25-3. Ty Lawson and J.R. Smith led the Nuggets with 22 points apiece. Jazz 112, Timberwolves 107 MINNEAPOLIS — Al Jefferson had 23 points, nine rebounds and seven blocks against his former team and Utah coach Jerry Sloan moved into sole possession of third place on the career victories list. Sloan picked up victory No. 1,211, moving past Pat Riley into sole possession of third place on the career list. Only Don Nelson (1,335) and Lenny Wilkens (1,332) have more victories in NBA history. Kevin Love had 25 points and 19 rebounds and Michael Beasley added 24 points and 10 rebounds for Minnesota. Bulls 87, Wizards 80 WASHINGTON — Carlos Boozer scored 30 points and Derrick Rose added 25 to help Chicago beat Washington for its ninth victory in 10 games.

Antawn Jamison had 23 points for Atlanta Hornets 105, Nets 91 NEW ORLEANS — Emeka Okafor had 21 points and 10 rebounds, and Chris Paul added 12 points and 14 assists for the Hornets.
Wood’s stickback lets Wolfpack escape
COACH K come better, and that’s all I’m concerned with.” There’s certainly enough on his plate. Even with star freshman Kyrie Irving on the bench, his right foot in a cast for who knows how much longer, the top-ranked Blue Devils have as good a chance at winning an NCAA title as anyone out there. The London Olympics are only 18 months away, a blink of the eye by the standards of international basketball, and no matter what happens this season, another powerful recruiting class arrives on Duke’s campus next fall. It’s all business as usual. “Coach is as fiery as he’s been since I was a freshman,” Duke forward Kyle Singler said, then chuckled. “He should have a couple more years.” By any measure, 879 wins is a career. It was for Smith. It was for John Wooden and Adolph Rupp and all the other legends that never got this far. Though Jim Boeheim and Jim Calhoun aren’t far behind Krzyzewski, there are great active coaches piling up wins at record rates, such as Roy Williams (621 wins at age 60) and Tom Izzo (371 wins at 55) who are unlikely to join the group. What’s different in this case is that although Smith

duke coach Mike Krzyzewski directs his team. (and Knight) finished their careers in this neighborhood, Krzyzewski still has work left to do. “I know it’s like a milestone, but I’m more interested in how we become a better team this year,” Krzyzewski said. On the night Krzyzewski moves alongside Smith, the Blue Devils are ranked No. 1 and undefeated. That sounds like it’s exactly the way Krzyzewski would want it. What’s next may be as simple as more of the same. (Contact Luke DeCock at luke.decock@newsobserver.com or twitter.com/LukeDeCock.) (Distributed by Scripps Howard News Service, www.scrippsnews.com.)

The college basketball roundup ... RALEIGH — Scott Wood’s putback with 2.1 seconds left lifted North Carolina State past Delaware State 72-70 on Wednesday night. Richard Howell scored a careerhigh 16 points, C.J. Leslie had 15 and DeShawn Painter added a career-high 14 for the Wolfpack (7-4). They led by 13 late in the first half but needed some drama to hold off the pesky Hornets. Casey Walker scored 20 points and hit four 3-pointers for Delaware State (4-6), and his free throw with 37.2 seconds left tied it at 70. Javi Gonzalez called a timeout with 33.3 seconds left, and the Wolfpack ran down the clock before Lorenzo Brown made his move with about 10 seconds left. He found Ryan Harrow, whose 3pointer from the corner bounced off the iron. Wood grabbed the rebound and put it back for his only points of the night. Jay Threatt's desperation 3 from midcourt bounced off the front of the rim at the buzzer. Siena 62, Georgia Tech 57 ALBANY, N.Y. — Ryan Rossiter scored 12 of his 19 points in the second half and had 13 rebounds as Siena stunned Georgia Tech for the second time in program history. Rossiter had his 40th double-double despite a sickness requiring two IVs before the game and a blow to the face late in the first half that sent him to the locker room for medical attention. Siena used a 15-2 second-half run to turn a six-point deficit into a 49-44 lead
with 9:51 to play. Georgia Tech (6-5) tied the game twice, but never regained the lead in the homecoming of coach Paul Hewitt, who left Siena for the Yellow Jackets in 2000. Clemson 66, College of Charleston 59 CHARLESTON, S.C. — Jerai Grant scored 15 points and made all nine of his free throws to lead Clemson past College of Charleston on Wednesday night. Demontez Stitt returned for the Tigers (8-4) after missing two games with knee surgery. He scored eight points, including a key 6-foot baseline floater that put Clemson ahead 62-57 with 42 seconds to go. College of Charleston’s Andrew Goudelock led all scorers with 21 points, fighting through double-teams much of the game. But he missed a 3-pointer to tie with 16 seconds to go. Miami 73, Rice 67 LAS VEGAS — Malcolm Grant scored 25 points, highlighted by six 3pointers, to lead Miami over Rice on Wednesday in the third round of the Las Vegas Holiday Hoops Classic. BC 84, Bucknell 80 BOSTON — Reggie Jackson scored 14 of his 22 points in the closing 11:13 and Biko Paris had a key 3-pointer late to lift Boston College to its seventh straight win. Seattle 59, Virginia 53 CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Sterling Carter scored 19 points and Aaron Broussard added 15 as Seattle snapped Virginia’s five-game winning streak. Virginia (8-4) welcomed leading scorer Mike Scott back into the lineup, but it didn’t make much difference. In 31 minutes off the bench, Scott had 12
points and eight rebounds. Maryland 89, NJIT 50 COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Jordan Williams had 14 points and 12 rebounds, and five other players scored in double figures for Maryland.. It was the sixth straight double-double for Williams, the longest such streak by a Maryland player since Joe Smith had a seven-game run in 1995. G. Washington 82, E. Carolina 80 WASHINGTON — Tony Taylor scored a career-high 26 points and Bryan Bynes banked in the game-winner with an off-balance 18-foot jumper with 2.5 seconds remaining for the Colonials. Jontae Sherrod made five 3-pointers and led the Pirates with 21 points to pace four double-figure scorers. Charlotte 57, Wright State 53 CHARLOTTE— The 49ers rallied from a 14-point deficit in the second half to beat Wright State. The 49ers outscored Wright State 25-7 over the final 12 minutes, as Wright State scored on just three of its final 19 possessions. Derrio Green led Charlotte with 16 points. K.J. Sherrill (West Rowan) played 11 minutes and scored two points. No. 15 Baylor 83, San Diego 50 HONOLULU — Quincy Acy and Anthony Jones each scored 14 points for the Bears. No. 24 UCF 64, UMass 59 AMHERST, Mass. — Isaac Sosa scored 14 points in his first start of the season and Central Florida held off Massachusetts on Wednesday night in the Knights’ debut as a nationally ranked team.
She pumped her first as the ball dropped through the net and, after Auriemma took her out about 30 seconds later, slapped hands and exchanged hugs with her coaches and teammates on the bench. She finished with three assists, three blocks and a steal. “It’s kind of cool that this game happened not even in the middle of our season,” Moore said. “Now we have this high, but we can still play.

Finally, when the buzzer

She and her teammates ran to the student section to exchange high-fives, then returned to the bench to don brand-new “89 and Counting” T-shirts. As Auriemma did his usual postgame prize giveaway for the students — befitting such a big night, Tuesday’s gift was a Wii — Moore and her teammates mugged for the cameras at center court. And when Auriemma showered praise on Moore and Tiffany Hayes, UConn’s other veteran star, the two players hugged while their teammates patted them on the head. “Maya, during all these 89 games, has been at her absolute best when it was absolutely needed,” Auriemma said. “I’ll always remember that and I’ll always admire her for that. Because that’s not easy to do.”

Cowboys’ Romo out
DEATHS FROM 1C baskets and the genesis of the game itself. He died at 99, just a couple months short of a century. “In my opinion, if he’s not as important as Dr. Naismith, he’s right next to him,” Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun said. He was, Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said, “a giant in all of sport.” Gripping a rolled-up program like a baton, Wooden was the consummate maestro. The Bruins won 10 NCAA titles and seven in a row from 1967 to 1973. There was an 88-game winning streak that has enjoyed renewed attention thanks to the Connecticut women and their dynasty a generation down the road. But, as Wooden would be the first to note, he never scored a basket during that run. It was all the players, and what players they were: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bill Walton, Gail Goodrich, Jamaal Wilkes. For all the victories, however, it was the daily practice that drove Wooden. That’s when basketball was taught. When the game itself arrived, he would have been happy to sit in the stands and see what became of his instruction. “He taught in a very simple way,” Abdul-Jabbar said. “He used sports as a means to teach us how to apply ourselves to any situation.” Steinbrenner’s reign had the subtlety of a bullhorn. His teams also produced titles — seven World Series crowns and 11 pennants — but if UCLA thrived under the quiet, scholarly tutelage of Wooden, Steinbrenner’s Yankees cranked up the volume and brought a showmanship and self-promotion that has come to define much of professional sports. “George was The Boss, make no mistake,” said Yogi Berra, who for years cut himself off from the Yankees because of Steinbrenner. “He built the Yankees into champions, and that’s something nobody can ever deny.” Steinbrenner died of a heart attack at 80. He was a shadow of himself in his final years as his health weakened, the bluster and mighty pronouncements fading as his sons took control of the team. By the end, the man who was twice suspended from baseball on the way to building a sports empire was something of a beloved figure. He was a long way from the owner who saw himself as a gung-ho football coach and inspired fear and trembling among employees, spending wildly on free agents, clashing with the likes of Berra, Billy Martin and Dave Winfield, and firing and rehiring managers in what became comic opera. “I will always remember George Steinbrenner as a passionate man, a tough boss, a true visionary,” said Joe Torre, who managed the Yankees for 12 years. But no matter how much noise the Yankees created, none of it matched the din from the “Shot Heard ‘Round the World.” Bobby Thomson, whose home run decided the 1951 pennant for the New York Giants, died this year at 86. If Steinbrenner and Thomson were about sound, Bob Feller was about speed. The Iowa farm boy made it to the majors with the Cleveland Indians at just 17 and eventually to the Hall of Fame. He died at 92, his last days spent in a hospice, and was one of baseball’s greatest pitchers. Feller was blindingly fast. He struck out 15 in his major league debut and threw three-no-hitters (the only one on opening day) and 12-one-hitters. He won 266 games in 18 seasons and would have won a lot more if not for his military service. He enlisted the day after Pearl Harbor, the first major leaguer to do so. “Bob was a great pitcher, but he was first and foremost a great American,” Commissioner Bud Selig said. He and Thomson died in a year in
QUIRKS FROM 1C Vonn will have diversified her treatments by then. If injury strikes, maybe this skier can skip the cheese and go right to a prime cut of sirloin. (Fries and grilled onions, however, could lead to skin abrasions.) In any case, Vonn is now talking more about cheese than ski wax. The other month she went to an elementary school in Denver. And the kids clearly were ready for lunch. “That was the No. 1 question,” Vonn said. “What’s the cheese? How do you get cheese to heal injuries? Where can we buy it? What kind of cheese was it. It’s hilarious.” There were food issues elsewhere in sports. In Pittsburgh, the Pirates fired their pierogi — the man who races around the stadium in a dumpling costume. Andrew Kurtz was dismissed for his online criticism of the contract extensions given to the manager and general manager. He was immediately offered work as a hot dog by a minor league team, but Kurtz is happily a pierogi again. The Pirates rehired him because he had not been dismissed in keeping with company procedures.

the sports world lost John Wooden, left, and Manute Bol in 2010. which baseball could have filled a lineup with obituaries. If Steinbrenner were looking to put someone in this dugout he could turn to Sparky Anderson. The white-haired Hall of Famer, who managed Cincinnati’s Big Red Machine to championships in 1975 and 1976 and won another with Detroit in 1984, died at 76. And if Anderson got tossed from the game, surely Ralph Houk, 90, and Bobby Bragan, 92, could step in for a few innings. Joe L. Brown, 91, the Pirates’ crafty general manager, could work the front office. He would have Feller and workhorse Hall of Famer Robin Roberts, 83, on the mound, with Mike Cuellar, Bob Shaw, Billy Loes, Jim Bibby and Jose Lima completing the staff. Ron Santo, 70, clicking his heels and with Cubs fans cheering, would be set at third base and joined in the infield by Gil McDougald and Walt Dropo. Phil Cavarretta, 94, the 1945 National League MVP who led the Cubs to their last World Series appearance, could split time between first base and the outfield. Willie Davis, 69, would be fast enough to cover the rest of the outfield by himself. Football was thrown for two big losses with the deaths of George Blanda and Don Meredith. Long before Brett Favre was the measure of true grit, there was Blanda. He died at 83 after a career in which the quarterback-kicker played 26 seasons, longer than anyone in pro football. He retired a month shy of 49 before the 1976 season, spending most of his time with the Bears and Raiders. “He was the best competitor and clutchest player that I ever coached, and I don’t know if there was anyone better that anyone else coached,” John Madden said. Meredith, for a generation of fans, was the aw-shucks foil to Howard Cosell in the “Monday Night Football” booth who broke into song when a game was over. But he also quarterbacked the Cowboys from 1960-68, nearly taking the winless expansion team to an NFL title. He was 31 when he retired and 72 when he died. Also gone were Ron Kramer, 75 who caught two touchdown passes in Green Bay’s 1961 NFL championship victory; Jack Tatum, 61, the Raiders’ punishing safety whose hit in a 1978 exhibition game paralyzed Darryl Stingley; Tom Brookshier, 78, a star defensive back on the Eagles’ 1960 championship team; Don Coryell, 85, the coach whose Air Coryell offense produced some of the NFL’s most inventive passing attacks; and Merlin Olsen, 69, a member of the Los Angeles Rams’ “Fearsome Foursome” who went on to a TV career in football and the show “Little House on the Prairie.” Basketball, too, was hit hard. Maurice Lucas, the fierce power forward who helped lead Portland to the 1977 NBA title, died of bladder cancer at 58. “He battled his illness like the warrior he was on the basketball court,” Trail Blazers coach Nate McMillan
The animal kingdom was well represented in sports, and not just by Tyson’s pigeon racing and the TV reality show in which the former heavyweight champion is to participate in 2011. Two deer smashed through the glass doors of a Wisconsin restaurant while customers were watching a basketball game on TV featuring, who else?, the Milwaukee Bucks. The intrusion gave new meaning to the team’s rallying cry of “Fear the Deer.” One deer was wrestled to the ground by patrons. The other deer fled to a private room, although it’s not clear if he had reserved it for a party. In Germany, Paul the Octopus, who uncannily predicted the results of this year’s World Cup, died in his aquarium tank, an oracle silenced. “He will be sorely missed,” Sea Life manager Stefan Powell said. Politics and sports were entangled again in 2010. There was little holiday cheer for Mohammad Mansour Azimzadeh Ardebili, a spokesman for Iran’s soccer federation. Iranian media reported he resigned after mistakenly e-mailing a New Year’s greeting to Israel’s soccer federation. FIFA President Sepp Blatter apologized for saying gay fans should abstain from sex during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar because
said. Manute Bol, a lithe 7-foot-7 shotblocker who dedicated himself to humanitarian work in Sudan, died at 47. Larry Siegfried, who won five NBA titles in seven years with the Celtics and helped Ohio State in 1960 to its only championship, was 71. A couple of Knicks stars from the 1950s — Carl Braun and Dick McGuire — died a week apart. Quintin Dailey, his immense talent overshadowed by a sexual assault conviction in college at San Francisco and drug problems in the NBA, was 49. Also gone are longtime Warriors owner Franklin Mieuli, 89, and two coaches — the Lakers’ Fred Schaus, 84; Marquette’s Hank Raymonds, 86. Juan Antonio Samaranch, a former ambassador who spent 21 years as the IOC’s president, died at 89. He presided over an era in which boycotts, professionalism, expansion and corruption became part of the Olympic fabric. “He got us from being in the remnants of the 19th century and got us into the 21st century,” IOC member Dick Pound said. Also dying way too young was Yeardley Love, a 22-year-old lacrosse player at Virginia who was found beaten to death in her apartment. George Huguely, a men’s lacrosse player at Virginia, was charged with murder. Not long afterward, a rival team handed the Virginia women pins with an angel carrying a lacrosse stick. The LPGA’s Erica Blasberg was found with a plastic bag over her head at her Nevada home. The coroner ruled the 25-year-old woman’s death a suicide. Auto racing will now be without Jim Hunter, a NASCAR executive who spent parts of six decades in the industry. He was 71 and had a hand in most major decisions during the sport’s boom years. Hockey said goodbye to Pat Burns, his booming voice silenced. He coached the New Jersey Devils to an NHL title in 2003 and was coach of the year with three different teams. He died at 58, and at his funeral a flame flickered above a miniature Stanley Cup. Bob Probert, an NHL tough guy for 16 seasons, died at 45, stricken with chest pains while boating with his family. In boxing, referee Arthur Mercante was counted out at 90 after a career in which he worked more than 100 world title bouts, including the first Ali-Frazier fight. Horse racing lost Hall of Fame trainer MacKenzie Miller, 89, and some noble steeds in Personal Ensign, Real Quiet and Skip Away. And the year passes with a flick-ofthe-wrist tribute to Walter Fredrick Morrison. He died at 90 and is credited with inventing the Frisbee. The plastic disc was first called “Pluto Platter.” More than 200 million were sold as the Frisbee took its place in the pantheon of pop culture. “He was an entrepreneur,” son Walt Morrison said. “He was always looking for something to do.”
of the country’s harsh laws on homosexuality. Blatter, it should be noted, offered no advice on how fans should conduct their sex lives at other soccer tournaments. The Pakistan parliament fined its men’s national field hockey team after photos surfaced showing players hugging a female liaison at a tournament in Argentina. “It is not our culture to hug a lady,” said Jamshed Dasti, chairman of a parliament committee. Oklahoma City Mayor Mick Cornett didn’t go that far, but he did say no to the Lingerie Football League playing in his town. The women wear halter tops and tight shorts with their tackle football gear. Why the veto? Cornett said “there are too many problems to list.” Sports brought forth a burst of honesty this season. After Game 7 of the NBA finals, the Lakers’ Ron Artest dispensed with the litany of praise for the usual suspects and got right to the point. “First, I want to thank everybody in my ‘hood,” he said. “I definitely want to thank my doctors. ... My psychiatrist, she really helped me relax a lot.” Cross-country skier Odd-Bjoeren Hejelmeset was even more forthcoming after his poor showing left Norway with the silver medal in the 4x10-kilometer relay at the Olympics. He acknowledged
The NFL notebook ... IRVING, Texas — With time running out on this season, the Dallas Cowboys told injured quarterback Tony Romo he might as well rest up for next year. Romo went on injured reserve, eliminating any chance of him playing Saturday at Arizona or in the season finale at Philadelphia. He’s been out since breaking his left collarbone Oct. 25. Jon Kitna will start the final two games. Interim coach Jason Garrett said he wouldn’t use secondyear backup Stephen McGee unless Kitna is hurt. Kitna is 4-4 since taking over for Romo, including 4-2 since Garrett replaced fired coach Wade Phillips. PATRIOTS FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — New England Patriots guard Dan Connolly has been honored as the AFC Special Teams Player of the Week by the NFL. Connolly returned a kickoff 71 yards in Sunday night’s 31-27 win over the Green Bay Packers, believed to be the longest return ever by an NFL offensive lineman. According to STATS LLC, it was the longest since 1976, when the league began keeping complete records. He returned the ball to the Packers 4-yard line and
SMITH FROM 1C suggested he might want to be traded to a contender if the Panthers begin a long rebuilding process. Coach John Fox is in the last year of his contract and the Panthers almost certainly will have a new coach next season. “Am I concerned about my contract? No,” Smith said. “Am I looking forward to the end of the year? Actually, not. But I’m not really focusing on next year.” With no reliable No. 2 receiver and shoddy quarterback play, the Panthers have become the NFL’s lowest-scoring team and worst passing offense. The fiery Smith’s frustrations boiled over as recently as Dec. 12, when he lashed out at struggling rookie quarterback Jimmy Clausen by saying, “He ain’t at Notre Dame anymore, that’s for sure.” Smith, who has twice been suspended for punching teammates, has maintained a close relationship over the years with Richardson. That’s continued despite the roster churn and Richardson’s key role for the owners in the tense negotiations over a new labor deal. Smith said recent news that he met with Richardson
at a news conference he was sidetracked in his preparations. “I think I have seen too much porn in the last 14 days,” he said. But for true, uninhibited selfexpression, consider amateur English soccer player Joseph Rimmer. He became so enraged at the prospect of a referee failing to award a penalty kick that he stormed off the field. All that would have been fine, except he returned by driving his Range Rover onto the field and pointing it at the ref. People scattered. The ref, though shaken, was not injured. Rimmer drew a six-month jail sentence. Sports reminded us in 2010 that diamonds are not only a girl’s best friend, but an NFL player’s as well. At least nine Miami Dolphins players raked the field and crawled on the grass in search of a diamond belonging to defensive end Kendall Langford. It seems he forgot to remove his earrings before practice and one got lost — nearly 2.5 carats and possibly worth more than $50,000. The search ended, the grass was mowed and the gem never found. “It’s a fat diamond,” defensive end Ryan Baker said. “It’s a shame.” Sports fans presented themselves in a number of ways in 2010: confusion, revulsion, devotion. A Detroit Tigers fan in Ohio was
the Patriots scored three plays later. METRODOME UPDATE MINNEAPOLIS — Workers are finally close to clearing the Metrodome roof of snow and ice so that more substantial repair work can begin on the home of the Minnesota Vikings. Three panels were damaged in a blizzard earlier this month, and a fourth ripped a few days later. PACKERS GREEN BAY, Wis. — Quarterback Aaron Rodgers has returned to practice with the Green Bay Packers. It is Rodgers' first practice with the team since sustaining a concussion in the Packers' Dec. 12 loss at Detroit, his second concussion this season. Rodgers sat out Sunday night's loss at New England. REDSKINS ASHBURN, Va. — The Washington Redskins have placed defensive linemen Ma'ake Kemoeatu and Phillip Daniels on injured reserve. Kemoeatu said Wednesday he has a left shoulder injury that will probably require surgery. Daniels has abdominal, groin and hamstring injuries. BROWNS BEREA, Ohio — Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Colt McCoy is sick and not practicing. McCoy returned to the starting lineup last week.
is nothing unusual and, “We’ll always talk, whether I’m an employee here or not. The relationship I have with Mr. Richardson is very unique.” Smith declined to say if he discussed his future or the direction of the club in his recent chat with Richardson, the only explayer to currently own an NFL team. “What me and Mr. Richardson talk about for the last 10 years will not be said in front of cameras or recorders,” Smith said. “That’s an authentic relationship. The kind of guy I am, I don’t really talk about things like that because then it waters down what we really have.” Facing constant double teams like he has for much of the season, Smith was held to just two catches for 22 yards in Sunday’s 19-12 victory over Arizona. But as Carolina’s poor season reaches a close, Smith insisted he’s only thinking about getting ready to play Pittsburgh. “I’m not really focusing on next year because it’s going to be bad weather,” Smith said. “For us old folks, that cold weather is going to do us bad. It’s going to be a tough, physical game and I’ve got my teammates counting on me to play ball. I’ve got a little more on my plate than ust next year.”
watching TV at home as Armando Galarraga closed in on a perfect game. Soon after umpire Jim Joyce blew the first-base call that cost Galarraga his masterpiece, the phone started ringing in the fan’s Toledo home. He wondered why. Some callers were crude and harassing. It turns out, WTOL-TV reported, that the luckless fan not only went to the same high school as the umpire but also was named Jim Joyce. Clearly, the year’s most disgusting performance was by Matthew Clemmens of Cherry Hill, N.J. He intentionally vomited on a spectator and his 11-year-old daughter at a Phillies game. He was sentenced to three months in jail and community service that the judge suggested be met by cleaning ballpark toilets and trash. A Michigan man gave fandom a better name, although his judgment is open to question. Major Hester, a 69-year-old retired office supply clerk, put off getting a pacemaker so he could watch his beloved Michigan State play Michigan in football. Hester knew something could go terribly wrong on the operating table, and kickoff still would have been two days away. And where would that leave him? “Whatever happens,” he told The Detroit News, “I want to see the game.”

Newton Player of Year

Auburn quarterback cam Newton (2) struggles to ward off a tackle by Mississippi state linebacker chris White (50). at Alabama. “The sign of a special quarterback is one that has the abilities to make his teammates better and make his teammates believe in things that maybe they wouldn’t believe without him,” Malzahn said. “We’ve faced some major adversity earlier in the year when we didn’t know each other that well. “We were down to Clemson 17-0 at home and it was ugly as all get out. But he didn’t change then. He’s a rock, as far as all that’s concerned. Doesn’t panic.” It doesn’t hurt that Newton’s 6-foot-6 and 250 pounds with deceptive speed, nifty open-field moves, power and a nice arm. He broke the single-season SEC rushing record for a quarterback in the eighth game, a 28-carry, 217-yard effort against LSU. Malzahn also says Newton has proven he’s “not a good thrower, he’s an excellent thrower.” As the season wore on, Newton’s skills bloomed and not even a scandal could slow him. He deftly played through an NCAA investigation into a pay-for-play recruiting attempt involving his father, Cecil, at Mississippi State. The NCAA said Cecil Newton
eastern Conference and Atlantic Coast Conference. Each team purchased its full ticket allotment for the Dec. 31 game at the Georgia Dome. Local and regional fans purchased the remaining tickets from the Atlanta-based office. TENNESSEE VIOLATIONS KNOXVILLE, Tenn — Tennessee reported secondary violations to the NCAA after discovering 36 student-athletes were given special treatment at the Knoxville bar where a fight involving Volunteers football players broke out in July. Tennessee athletics officials began investigating possible extra benefits after the owners of Bar Knoxville said following the July 9 bar brawl that Vols athletes were not required to pay cover charges on Thursday nights when some other patrons were charged between $5 and $10. ARKANSAS FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas defensive coordinator Willy Robinson says the Ohio State running game will be a focus of the Razorback defense when the two teams meet Jan. 4 in the Sugar Bowl at New Orleans. After Tuesday's workout in Razorback Stadium, Robinson said the No. 8 Arkansas team (10-2) will face an Ohio State squad that generally uses the direct approach in running the ball, with only a few misdirection elements. But Robinson said the main player the Razorbacks would have to defend against is Terrelle Pryor, quarterback of the No. 6 Ohio State team (11-1). Robinson said Pryor is very dynamic, and Ohio State is able to use him in a variety of ways. Former West Rowan star Chris Smith is a defensive end for the Razorbacks. HAWAII BOWL HONOLULU — The University of Hawaii's football team may not be tied to playing its future postseason games in the Hawaii Bowl. Mountain West Conference Commissioner Craig Thompson told The Honolulu Star-Advertiser that it's open to considering the Warriors for non-Bowl Championship Series games other than the Hawaii Bowl. The current arrangement has UH playing in the Hawaii Bowl unless it's bound for a BCS bowl game, as it was in 2007. Thompson says that may still work for UH, other conference members and ESPN Regional, which owns the Hawaii Bowl. But he says the parties may want to expand the number of bowls for which Hawaii could vie. The Warriors play Tulsa Friday in the Hawaii Bowl, their sixth appearance in the game's nine-year history.
The college notebook ... NORMAN, Okla. — Eric Mensik twice got to go to the Fiesta Bowl as a young player at Oklahoma. Counting up all of his cherished memories from those two BCS bowl trips doesn’t take long to do. “Honestly, none,” said Mensik, now a starting offensive tackle for the ninthranked Sooners. “The hotel was nice and the food was great, but other than that if I had to choose if I wanted to go to Arizona, I would rather go to Florida or something else.” The Fiesta Bowl has been no party to Oklahoma. During a five-game Bowl Championship Series losing streak, the Sooners’ two most astounding losses came in the Fiesta Bowl, against Boise State in 2007 and West Virginia in 2008. So, when Oklahoma (11-2) heads to Glendale, Ariz., to play Connecticut (8-4) in the Jan. 1 bowl game, there’s redemption on the line. “We want to prove that even though we’ve lost two times before, we are still a team that can play in the BCS,” said Mensik, a senior who experienced both previous losses from the sideline. The Sooners are favored by 17 points, matching the largest spread for any bowl game this season, but they were also favored in their last two Fiesta Bowl appearances and lost 43-42 to Boise State and 4828 to West Virginia. The other three BCS losses came in championship games: the 2004 Sugar Bowl against LSU, the 2005 Orange Bowl against Southern California and the 2009 BCS title game against Florida. COTTON BOWL BATON ROUGE, La. — LSU running back Stevan Ridley may be forced to miss the Cotton Bowl against Texas A&M because of an academic violation. Coach Les Miles, who discussed Ridley's status after the Tigers completed preChristmas workouts on Wednesday, said LSU is appealing to the NCAA in hopes that Ridley can still suit up when LSU (102) meets the Aggies (9-3) in Cowboys Stadium on Jan. 7. CHICK-FIL-A A SELLOUT ATLANTA — The matchup between South Carolina and Florida State has given the Chick-fil-A Bowl its 14th consecutive sellout. The bowl's streak of sellouts matches the Fiesta Bowl for the second-longest in the nation, trailing only the Rose Bowl. Chick-fil-A Bowl president Gary Stokan said Wednesday the latest sellout was generated by continued local interest for the annual pairing of teams from the South-
Associated Press AUBURN, Ala. — Cam Newton lifted Auburn from the back of the Top 25 to No. 1 in the nation. The Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback led the Tigers into the national title game against No. 2 Oregon with a mix of flair and poise and enough highlight reel plays to widely split the vote among a handful of coaches and teammates asked for their favorite. Newton has already raked in the Heisman Trophy and Davey O’Brien and Maxwell awards for his spectacular season. He added AP Player of the Year to his collection on Wednesday. An NCAA investigation into Newton’s recruitment, which threw his eligibility into doubt during November, had no effect on how he played down the stretch — or the voting for the AP award. It was about as lopsided as the Heisman vote. Newton received 51 votes from the 60-member AP football poll panel. Boise State quarterback Kellen Moore received three, Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck got two and four ballots went unreturned. In less than a year, Newton has gone from the obscurity of junior college to helping transform a team that went 85 last season and started this one ranked No. 22 to a perfect Southeastern Conference championship. It wasn’t all about the big plays, though. Offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn said he was more impressed by Newton’s leadership in repeatedly bringing the team from behind, including a 24-0 deficit

sought payment from the Bulldogs, but there was no evidence that his son or Auburn knew about it. The week before the SEC title game, the NCAA said Newton could play and he accounted for six touchdowns in a 56-17 victory against South Carolina. That locked up a spot in the BCS title game on Jan. 10 in Glendale, Ariz. It’s the second straight season Newton has led his team to the national championship game. He guided Blinn College in Brenham, Texas, to the JUCO championship last year — only few noticed. “We probably have more people in this room here alone than the whole junior college national championship game,” Newton said recently. Auburn coach Gene Chizik was asked about the highs and lows of Newton’s season. He confined his answer to the field. “I don’t recall a lot of lows with him, but I recall a lot of highs,” Chizik said. “I’m just impressed with him period, both as a person on and off the field and the way he has progressed as a football player for us in this system week by week. Obviously, he’s one of the huge reasons why we’re here, along with many others.”

stronger he gets and we are all his weapons,” Fraction said. Joe Quesada, editor-in-chief and chief creative officer at Marvel Entertainment said the story was born out of plans for bigger stories for Marvel’s universe. Brevoort and Axel Alonso, another Marvel executive editor, said the thread of the story will be woven in the coming months and involve major characters from the X-Men to Dracula. What the outcome will be is still a secret, but Alonso remarked that with the tension plaguing the world at large, the aim is to “tap into the Zeitgeist of the day.”

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The real world is intruding in a real way for the heroes — and villains — of the Marvel universe. The publisher — whose characters range from the wall-crawler Spider-Man to mutant outcasts XMen — said Tuesday that the fear, uncertainty and overarching anxiety that has gripped today’s world will play havoc with its fictional heroes next spring as it embarks on “Fear Itself,” a seven-issue limited series that will reach across numerous titles and leave its characters scarred but smarter. The story line starts in March with a one-shot prologue penned by Ed Brubaker. The prologue, said Marvel executive editor Tom Brevoort, will involve Captain America, Namor and the Invaders “and a mission in World War II that sets the stage for what’s to come in the main ‘Fear Itself’ book.” From there, the seven issue miniseries will launch in April, written by Matt Fraction and drawn by Stuart Immonen and will, Brevoort said “be, in terms of its size and scope across the Marvel Universe” analogous to the multiissue, cross-title epic “Secret Invasion” that focused on the subtle, behind-the-scenes invasion of Earth by shape-shifting Skrulls. Marvel has never shied away from cataclysmic story events. In “Civil War,” the company put its heroes on the front lines of personal civil liberties and freedoms, a story that ultimately ended with the death of Captain America. “Fear Itself” will run through numerous issues, too, and, Brevoort said, shake up the Marvel universe. Fraction said that the story would be relatable the world at large. “It is something that speaks to the world we live in,” he said in videotaped address at a press conference in New York. “It feels like there is this great shadow over us all, this anxiousness, this anger. It feels like reason and discourse have taken a back seat to mob mentality and hysteria. And everyone is afraid of something right now.” The details of the story, and its path, were closely guarded, but Fraction said it would feature heroes versus a “God of Fear” who draws his power from fearful feelings. “The more you fear him, the

Movie reviews: ‘Tron: Legacy’ Associated Press
“Tron: Legacy” — Hugely high-tech and forward-thinking in its day, “Tron” now looks cheesy and quaint in retrospect, with its blocky graphics and simplistic blips and bleeps. The original film from 1982 was all about the possibility of technology and the human imagination, and the adventures that could result from marrying the two, but only now are the computer-generated effects available to render this digital world in its fullest potential. Hence, we have a sequel, which is in 3-D (of course) but is actually best viewed in IMAX 3-D. The whole point of the story and the aesthetics are that they’re meant to convey an immersive experience. We’re supposed to feel just as trapped inside this challenging and dangerous electronic realm as the film’s
cally placed Boston terrier. And with the return of Jeff Bridges, there’s DOWN plenty of Dude-ishness for you fans “The Big 1. of Goodyear vehicle associaTed press Lebowski.” PG for sequences of sci-fi ac2. Smallest of 50: abbr.

You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
